We are seeking a dedicated and compassionate Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) to join our team in providing critical mental health support within a hospice care setting. This full-time, remote role offers the opportunity to make a significant difference in the lives of our patients and their families during some of life's most challenging moments.

At Gotham Enterprises Ltd, our mission is to enhance the quality of life for individuals facing terminal illnesses by providing comprehensive, compassionate care. Our organization is known for its patient-centered approach and dedication to empowering individuals through trauma-informed care. We understand that emotional and psychological support is paramount for patients navigating end-of-life issues, and we strive to offer an environment where our social workers can thrive professionally while making substantial contributions to patient well-being.

This role is primarily remote, allowing for a flexible work schedule that you can tailor to your needs and the needs of your clients. You will be part of a supportive team that values collaboration and communication. Our hospice center creates a nurturing environment focused on the holistic care of patients and their families, while providing the resources necessary for you to succeed in your clinical practice.

\n
• Conduct thorough psychosocial assessments to understand the unique needs and circumstances of each patient and their family.
\n
• Develop individualized treatment plans incorporating evidence-based interventions aimed at alleviating emotional distress and improving quality of life.
\n
• Provide therapy sessions using solution-focused techniques and other therapeutic modalities consistent with patient needs.
\n
• Maintain concise and accurate clinical documentation in compliance with HIPAA regulations and organizational standards.
\n
• Engage with a multidisciplinary team, including physicians and nurses, to deliver comprehensive care that addresses both physical and emotional aspects of patient well-being.
\n
• Educate patients and families about available resources, coping strategies, and care options to ensure informed and empowered decision-making.
\n
• Stay current with clinical practices, mental health trends, and trauma-informed approaches to continue to enhance professional knowledge and practice efficacy.
\n

In this role, you will primarily work with patients receiving hospice care, many of whom are dealing with terminal illnesses like cancer, heart disease, or neurodegenerative disorders. You will provide emotional support tailored to the needs of these patients and their families, as they navigate complex feelings of grief, anxiety, and sadness associated with end-of-life experiences. Your role is pivotal in fostering a compassionate space where patients can express their feelings and where families can receive guidance and support.

\n
• A Master’s degree in Social Work from an accredited program.
\n
• A valid LCSW license in the state of Georgia.
\n
• A minimum of 2 years of clinical social work experience, preferably in a healthcare or hospice setting.
\n
• Strong skills in communication and interpersonal interactions, essential for building trust and rapport with clients.
\n
• Proficient in utilizing solution-focused therapy techniques and other evidence-based therapeutic interventions.
\n
• A demonstrated ability to work effectively in a collaborative environment with diverse team members.
\n

\n
• Experience working with terminal patients or within a hospice or palliative care setting.
\n
• Familiarity with electronic health record (EHR) systems to maintain accurate clinical information.
\n
• Additional training in trauma-informed practices or bereavement counseling is highly desirable.
\n

This position offers a competitive salary ranging from USD 80,000 to 100,000 annually, commensurate with experience and qualifications. In addition, we provide a comprehensive benefits package that includes:

\n
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance to support your health and well-being.
\n
• Life and disability insurance to ensure peace of mind for you and your family.
\n
• Malpractice insurance coverage as part of your professional support.
\n
• An employee assistance program (EAP) offering mental health services to support you and your family.
\n
• Unlimited referrals for a manageable caseload, ensuring you can focus on high-quality care.
\n
• Minimal paperwork to allow you to spend more time with patients rather than on administrative tasks.
\n
