Discover a new lane in social work that brings hope to patients enduring difficult health issues.

Interim HealthCare®, the nation’s first home care company, is looking for MSWs to join our team. It’s an opportunity to advocate for others in meaningful ways that improve their lives and bring strength amid their struggles. If that resonates with your heart, you are made for this!

As a Medical Social Worker, here’s a big-picture view of what you’ll do:

  • Provide home-based social services to patients dealing with depression, anxiety, poor nutrition or a lack of resources that make managing their injury or disease difficult
  • Work as part of a home health team which may include an RN, LPN, CNA, HHA, PT, OT or SLP, focused on the patient’s plan of care and individual goals 
  • Monitor a patient’s psychosocial condition and identify social and emotional needs  
  • Conduct patient assessments, document progress and ensure patient is moving toward goals
  • Provide counseling, community resource planning, crisis intervention and advocacy
  • Consult with family and caregivers on patient’s plan of care and how to help them progress

A few must-haves for Medical Social Workers:

  • Master’s degree in Social Work and active MSW license in Indiana
  • Minimum of 1 year of social work experience, ideally in home healthcare
  • CPR certification 
  • Knowledge of state and federal home health regulations
  • Strong interpersonal skills, good communicator, empathetic, compassionate and resourceful

Why Work for Interim HealthCare?

Founded in 1966, Interim HealthCare is the nation’s first home care company and a leading employer of Medical Social Workers (MSWs). Operating through 300+ offices, our commitment to you is expressed through a family-oriented culture that values and appreciates social workers, and a passion to put patients first.
