  • Collect and document accurate medical records, progress notes, and treatment plans in compliance with HIPAA regulations.
  • Manage crisis situations effectively through crisis intervention techniques and conflict management skills.

Requirements

  • Ability to work afternoons and evenings.
  • Join our team to empower adolescents on their journey toward mental wellness!
