📌 Note:

This opportunity starts as a contract role to help us design a 4-week inpatient addiction and mental health program. Once the program is built, we’re also looking to hire a full-time Clinical Director to oversee, implement, and lead the program long-term.

Applying for the full-time position is optional. We welcome candidates interested in only the contract portion as well.

-Structuring clinical documentation flow, care planning, and client file storage systems

-Advising on staffing needs and scopes of practice

🧠 Phase 2 – Full-Time Clinical Director Role (Post-Launch):

Upon successful collaboration and launch, we hope to bring the right candidate into a permanent leadership position as Clinical Director. Responsibilities will expand to include:

-Providing clinical supervision to all staff and ensuring quality of care

-Overseeing client intake, treatment planning, documentation, and discharge

-Leading staff training on clinical programming and delivery

-Coordinating outreach with community partners

📍 Location:
