This location serves clients on a per-visit basis across Windsor and Orange counties in Vermont, as well as Grafton County in New Hampshire.

  • Perform clinical social evaluations and devise suitable interventions based on findings.
  • Identify community resources to meet clients' and families' practical and environmental needs.
  • Serve as an advocate to help clients and families navigate community systems.
  • Engage in the development of comprehensive care plans alongside BAYADA's multidisciplinary team.
  • Establish and maintain partnerships with public and private agencies for patient resources.
  • Educate patients, families, or representatives on community resources that promote health, safety, and independence.
  • Accurately document observations, interventions, and evaluations related to patient care using advanced technology.
