Job Title: Social Worker - Primary Care (Adolescent Health)

Social Work Services at the Mount Sinai Hospital    

The Mount Sinai Hospital is a 1,134-bed facility with an extensive outpatient and specialty care network and is the largest hospital in the Mount Sinai Health Care System. It offers comprehensive social work services and programming to meet the myriad needs of the diverse populations we serve. We believe that total patient care must emphasize the physical, emotional, and social needs of each patient and their care partners. Social Workers collaborate within interprofessional teams to serve patients and the larger community from both a micro and macro level including both direct care and prevention. Founded in 1907, the Department of Social Work Services at the Mount Sinai Hospital is one of the oldest hospital social work departments in the nation with over 450 licensed social workers employed across more than 65 different program/service areas. Employment in our department provides a pathway to LCSW licensure as well as access to a broad range of continuing education, professional development and extra-curricular opportunities.

The Mount Sinai Adolescent Health Center (“MSAHC” or the “Center”) works to break down racial, social and economic barriers to health care and wellness for young people by providing vital services - high quality, comprehensive, integrated and confidential - for all who come to the Center or school based health facilities, at no cost to them. The MSAHC advances adolescent and young adult health as a national imperative by serving as a leading center of clinical care, specialized training, innovative research and advocacy. 

The A28 Social Worker will provide social work services to at risk adolescents and their families in an integrated medical and mental health primary care setting at MSAHC. She/he/they will provide short term individual, family, and group psychotherapy, intense case management, crisis intervention, and health education as part of an interdisciplinary medical and mental health service model. A28 SW will consult with medical providers who are working with high-risk patients with both medical and mental health needs and conduct clinical assessments on patients referred by medical providers.  These include providers within primary care and child and adolescent psychiatry. All A28 SW’s will participate developing an innovative model to engage and retain adolescents who have a variety of psychosocial needs, particularly focusing on individuals with a history of trauma (e.g. sexual abuse, domestic violence, community violence, physical abuse.)
