Description
Home Hospital Advanced Practice Provider (NP or PA) full time 40 hour DaysJob Title:
Home Hospital Advanced Practice Provider
The APP will primarily admit at BWFH or BWH with flexibility to serve NWH and provider care to Home Hospital patients who live in the surrounding towns.
The Home Hospital Advanced Practice Provider (HH APP) will be part of a clinical team that provides acute-level care to patients in the comfort of their own home.
The MGB Home Hospital (HH) is an innovative strategic program that aims to improve the care of patients while increasing hospital capacity and reducing total costs of care.
The Home Hospital Advanced Practice Provider will support the work of Home Hospital by visiting (either in person or virtually) and managing patients in their home as a direct Home Hospital provider, supported by a multidisciplinary team that includes an attending physician (who oversees the direction of care for patients enrolled), a Home Hospital nurse, a paramedic (Mobile Integrated Health), an administrative coordinator, and other allied staff as needed (e.g.
Upon admission to Home Hospital a patient will have an in-person visit (this can be done in the hospital or in the home).
Daily Home Hospital rounds for the Home Hospital APP consist of at least one daily visit (in-person or virtual depending on patient needs and circumstances), with medical decision-making and delivery of needed care as appropriate (see specific clinical duties below).
The HH APP will facilitate continuity between care settings, ensure home care and acute care protocols are seamlessly integrated in the home settings, and function as a lead clinician in the home environment.
The ideal candidate for this HH APP role will be a patient-centered, proactive, flexible, and confident clinician comfortable with autonomy, multidisciplinary team collaborations, complex clinical decision-making, level-of-care triaging, and telemedicine.
Principle Roles/Responsibilities:
Local travel between patient homes within a defined 10-20 mile radius required.
