Job description

Step into a rewarding and impactful role as a Medical Social Worker in Georgia's charming Forsyth County community, with an opportunity to serve patients and families at the intersection of medical care and compassionate advocacy. Beginning 03/16/2026 for a multi-week assignment, you'll join a dedicated interdisciplinary team to assess psychosocial needs, coordinate essential community resources, support discharge planning, and empower individuals facing complex medical journeys. Your expertise will help families navigate transitions, mitigate psychosocial barriers, and foster resilience in the face of illness. This is more than a job—it's a chance to shape healing stories by ensuring dignity, equity, and personalized support accompany every care plan. You'll operate in a setting that values your insights, treats you as a trusted partner, and provides pathways to grow as a leader within medical social work.

Georgia's beauty is an ever-present backdrop to your daily work. Georgia's landscapes invite exploration, from the rolling foothills of the Blue Ridge to the serene shores around Lake Lanier, and the vibrant culture and hospitality of nearby Atlanta. Whether you're unwinding after a challenging case or drawing inspiration from the state's diverse communities, you'll find balance and inspiration in this environment. In addition to the local appeal, there's an additional dimension for professionals who crave variety: opportunities to work in different locations across the U.S., broadening your clinical experience while enjoying the security of guaranteed hours and competitive compensation.

Location benefits in Cumming, GA blend community warmth with professional access. You'll be close to excellent healthcare facilities, dynamic social service networks, and a range of outdoor and cultural amenities. The role offers a stable framework with guaranteed 40 hours per week, providing predictability for planning personal and professional commitments. Beyond the local setting, the position offers optional pathways to assignments nationwide, offering exposure to varied patient populations, hospital systems, and community agencies. This flexibility supports enhanced clinical judgment, stronger collaboration skills, and a more robust professional résumé, all while maintaining the stability of a steady schedule and dependable weekly compensation (Weekly pay: $1,655-$1,690).

Role specifics and benefits are designed to maximize impact and growth. As a Medical Social Worker, you'll conduct comprehensive psychosocial assessments, develop patient- and family-centered care plans, facilitate multidisciplinary case conferences, coordinate discharge planning, and connect patients with housing, transportation, financial assistance, and community resources. You'll advocate for equitable access to services, identify barriers to care, and implement strategies to reduce readmission risk and improve quality of life. The position emphasizes professional development within medical social work—opportunities to specialize in areas such as palliative care, oncology integration, geriatrics, or rehab pathways, with pathways to certifications, leadership roles, and expanded responsibilities over time. Competitive benefits include a sign-on bonus, housing assistance, and opportunities for contract extensions, ensuring you can plan for the long term. You'll also receive comprehensive support from a 24/7 assistance team while traveling with the company, ensuring you have dependable backup for clinical questions, logistical needs, or urgent situations. The work environment is grounded in collaboration, mentorship, and a shared commitment to elevating patient-centered care.

The company's values center on empowering staff, fostering career advancement, and building a supportive, inclusive culture. You'll be part of a system that encourages ongoing learning, open communication, and a culture of recognition for your contributions to patient outcomes. Expect regular opportunities to participate in professional development activities, receive constructive feedback, and access resources that help you flourish in your specialty. The organization understands that strong support pipelines translate into better care, and you'll benefit from a team that prioritizes your well‑being, professional growth, and work‑life integration as you navigate diverse clinical settings.
