I provide the link between Grafton & external customers (families, placing agencies & the community). All clients have an individual plan (a Plan of Care & an IEP which includes the central documents that describe treatment). I serve as an advocate for the client & their family & ensure coordination of services provided by Grafton during a client's stay, as well as coordination of services needed upon discharge. I am responsible for the oversight of the implementation of individual plans for all clients on my case load. I work collaboratively with internal & external customers to ensure a smooth admission to Grafton, establish criteria that will promote transition to the next most appropriate level of care, to develop the individual plan, to ensure authorization from the funding agency for the services & level of care needed, & ensure that the client makes steady progress toward achieving the goals & the discharge or transition criteria, as stated in the plan, within the designated time period. I collaborate with internal & external stakeholders to create & implement a transition plan that will prepare the client for successful discharge or transition to the next appropriate level of care. Facilitate pre-enrollment tasks to prepare for a client's enrollment & the admission intake process. I facilitate multidisciplinary team meetings to monitor client progress & update the Plan of Care. Meet & adhere to all timelines as required for funding (i.e. Medicaid EPSDT/Waiver & Private Insurance). Ensure documentation for each Client's Record is accurate & properly maintained. Manage the transition & discharge process. Prepare for & attend FAPT meetings. Manage quarterly report process. Respond to stakeholder complaints regarding all aspects of treatment & care for client. I provide direct care and supervision of clients. Manage hospitalizations (medical & acute), conduct preplacement interviews, facilitate pre-enrollment tasks & facilitate the admission intake process.
