Job description
UltaCare Medical has an immediate opening for a clinical social worker to provide psychotherapy (talk therapy) onsite to residents of a nursing home located in University City, MO. This is not a remote role. Our clinical social workers provide in-person therapy onsite in the nursing home and are exclusively designated for one location. This role is full-time.
Anxiety, depression, dementia, grief and loss and a variety of other mental health conditions are prominent challenges in nursing home populations and these residents deserve a professional clinician that can help them deal with these challenges. As an LCSW with UltaCare Medical, you’ll have the opportunity to use your skills and expertise to make a meaningful difference in the lives of these residents. Our LCSW’s often voice great professional satisfaction and can recite countless experiences where they dramatically helped others. This is often why LCSW’s do what they do, and we have structured this position to fully embrace the ability to help others.
Schedules are flexible and the LCSW will work independently and remotely inside of post-acute and long-term care nursing facilities. This means that you can generally choose when you come to work and when you leave, provided that you work the number of hours that have been agreed upon. Additionally, there is nobody “looking over your shoulder.” We require collaboration with nursing home staff, but ultimately you make your own schedule and have the autonomy do to what you are educated and trained to do. We are also open to LCSW's that prefer to work as independent contractors.
Many of our positions serve rural communities. These communities rely upon people helping others and tend to be tight knit. We play a vital role in these communities by improving the healthcare provided to those that may otherwise have difficulty accessing it. Our group was founded in 2006 and has always followed a guiding mission of keeping a small company feel while helping as many people as possible.

About UltaCare Medical:

UltaCare Medical was built to elevate patient care for Seniors. Often times this includes us increasing the availability of care by embedding providers wherever they live. We believe that everybody deserves immediate access to high quality care which is our "UltaCare." As opposed to facilities that may have providers that "round" , our providers are onsite full-time. "Rounding" providers can't spend the time needed with every patient. They have to choose which patient's they see when they are onsite because they may only be onsite for a half a day, once a week. Our providers are on-site, on demand full-time. Patients are seen when they need to be seen and providers can spend as much time as needed, not 5 minutes because they have to get to the next patient because they are only there for that half-day.
