This role offers a hybrid schedule—with time split between our Bergen County office, field visits to clients’ homes or facilities, and remote work. The ideal candidate is someone who is organized, compassionate, and comfortable being available after hours for clinical emergencies (on-call rotation to be determined as team grows).
