Full Job Description

For 30 years, School Health Clinics of Santa Clara County has offered low-cost, high-quality medical services to low income families. Our mission is to provide high quality, affordable primary medical care for the low income community.Research has shown that providing low-income and minority students with healthcare and health education give kids a chance to stay in school and perform better academically. Although we began as pediatric clinics, we now extend our services to adults. No one is ever turned away due to their inability to pay. All five clinics are located on school grounds in Santa Clara County, right in the neighborhoods where our patients live. Our staff is bilingual and multicultural so our patients can easily understand the medical advice that is given and are not intimidated because of a language barrier.

As a team member in the Patient Medical Home, the Licensed Clinical Social Worker collaborates with clinic management, nursing, and clinician staff to maintain high standards of patient care with the patient at the center. The Licensed Clinical Social Worker independently provides social work evaluation and treatment services to at-risk client’s and families with psychosocial needs as needed in general pediatric, adolescent and family medicine clinics; takes a leadership role in coordinating services with the interdisciplinary team and community agencies to ensure appropriate client care; advocates for and provides quality health care services to all persons in a culturally competent manner. The scope of service is directive in nature: to identify and manage clients with medical and mental/ behavioral health needs, provide target treatment, and monitor “at risk,” “high risk,” clients with a focus on the development of problem-solving and self-management skills as well as teaching coping mechanisms. Problems for which clients may be seen include: non-compliance with treatment plans (i.e., diet, exercise, and medications), academic problems (i.e., ADHD), mental health problems related to family disruptions and losses, peer related difficulties, physical /substance abuse and issues surrounding reproductive health and confidentiality.
