Join our team at CHONC, where compassion meets care for medically fragile children.
We are seeking a Bachelor-level Social Worker (BSW) to support children and families through care coordination, discharge planning, and psychosocial support. This position combines meaningful case management responsibilities with traditional social work services in a close-knit, multidisciplinary team setting.

Why CHONC?

At CHONC, you’ll be part of something deeply meaningful. Many of the children in our care are on life support or living with complex medical conditions.

We offer a collaborative, mission-driven team, and the chance to grow in your role while making a lasting impact every day.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Provide support to the primary social worker.

  • Conduct psychosocial assessments and develop care plans.

  • Provide individual and family support, including crisis intervention.

  • Coordinate discharge planning, referrals, and community resources.

  • Collaborate with nurses, physicians, and insurance representatives.

  • Support treatment team meetings and document care planning.

  • Assist with insurance authorizations and follow up.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Social Work (BSW required; MSW welcome)

  • 1+ year experience in a healthcare, pediatric, or case management setting preferred

  • Knowledge of child development, family systems, and community resources

  • Excellent communication, teamwork, and documentation skills

  • Familiarity with discharge planning and interdisciplinary collaboration is a plus

Full job description available upon request. Supervision and training provided.
