For those who want to invent the future of health care, here’s your opportunity. We’re going beyond basic care to health programs integrated across the entire continuum of care. Join us to startCaring. Connecting. Growing together.Position Summary:The ACL provides free, confidential access to behavioral health services and crisis intervention for the 3.3 million San Diegans. The ACL also provides afterhours pre-authorization for behavioral health inpatient, crisis residential and residential substance use disorder treatment. As the clinical work is done strictly on the telephone and computer (chat), this position requires an incredibly unique set of clinical skills more astute than those required for face-to- face interactions as there are no visual cues from which to draw upon to help paint a comprehensive clinical picture. Clinicians need to rely on their graduate education in psychology/sociology or related field, formal clinical training, and experience to exercise discretion and clinical judgment when providing access to appropriate behavior health services and crisis work. Clinicians need to quickly triage calls/chats in the queue to ensure safety and meet contractual performance standards. Must be able to work both independently and collaboratively with high precision and intensity like that of an emergency department- everyone has a crucial, time sensitive task to complete which is integral to the success of the entire operations. This is a fast-paced, clinically heavy position not for the faint of heart but equally rewarding as one can play a pivotal role in someone’s journey to recovery and save lives.
