About the Department

Our Post-Acute Care Transitions (PACT) Program is an award-winning initiative which focuses on patients who are medically stable and require nursing home level of care, but who do not yet have a safe discharge plan after hospitalization.

Using a multidisciplinary approach, PACT coordinates a seamless transition for patients from the hospital to the nursing home where patients can access resources related to mental health, homeless medicine, substance use, wound care, housing programs, and palliative services.

Once the patient is ready for discharge from the contracted nursing home, a team-based assessment informs a care coordination plan for patient integration back into the community.

We take care of our County’s high risk patient populations. We have the support of an excellent interdisciplinary team and committed physicians to ensure excellent career development.

There is also opportunity for QI projects for the division as well as teaching Internal Medicine residents. This position also offers full time employment to work half time in Post-Acute Care Transitions and half time in Primary Care clinic.
