- Provide behavioral health triage for urgent issues and participate in multidisciplinary case conferences and clinical rounds
- Educate and support teams through coaching on behavioral health best practices and facilitating resilience sessions for staff well-being
- Contribute to program improvement by offering feedback on workflows, ensuring high-quality care delivery, and maintaining timely documentation
- Conduct pre-visit chart preparation by reviewing external medical records (via HIEs and other sources) while using clinical judgment to identify and validate behavioral health conditions
