Collaborate Across the Care Continuum: Partner with physicians, care navigators, pharmacists, social workers, specialists, and community providers to coordinate comprehensive patient care. 

Educate Patients and Families: Provide guidance on medication management, disease prevention, nutrition, treatment adherence, safety planning, and care goals.
