Provide evidence-based education and resources to build patient understanding of integrative and lifestyle medicine and to reinforce the clinical care plan. Collaborate with clinical and nutrition staff to develop and disseminate culturally appropriate educational materials that meet the needs of a diverse patient population. Execute milestone touchpoints (e.g., new patient onboarding, key clinical milestones, anniversaries, pre-/post-travel) to maintain engagement and continuity. Onboarding, Scheduling & Coordination: Own end-to-end onboarding for Healthspan & Vitality Center patients, including profile setup, forms, EHR access, orientation to clinical and lifestyle services, and explanation of care pathways. Design an individualized journey and roadmap for each patient in collaboration with the clinical team, including visit cadence, labs, imaging, referrals, and lifestyle programs.

Produce after-visit summaries, co-own follow-through of lifestyle directives, and perform readiness checks for new interventions. Track all clinical directives (labs, referrals, imaging, lifestyle tasks) to closure; notify stakeholders of incomplete items and barriers.
