Program Manager |Alaska Behavioral Health

Unlike traditional receptionists, they are also certified health care providers, who also provide direct care and are a critical member of our integrated health care team, walking with the client throughout the treatment process. It’s outside the box – but it is what works. If you think this is the right role for you…..
