Description
WelbeHealth PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) provides seniors with the opportunity to continue living in their homes and in their communities. Our innovative and comprehensive range of medical services is what ignites our passion for treating the whole person and not just the symptoms! We employ a collaborative interdisciplinary team (IDT) approach to evaluate and guide participant care.
The Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner Team Lead provides psychiatric care while supporting clinical leadership, care coordination, workflow optimization, and behavioral health program development. This role balances direct patient care with operational and administrative responsibilities, collaborating with IDTs and WelbeHealth PACE Physicians to deliver comprehensive, participant-centered care under the direction of the Medical Director.

Provide clinical leadership and mentorship to Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners and Behavioral Health team members
Serve as the first point of contact for discussing complex cases and pre-enrollment decisions
Support onboarding, training, and professional development of Behavioral Health Clinicians, and participate in quality improvement initiatives, chart reviews, and clinical audits to promote high standards of care
Assist with the development, implementation, and refinement of clinical workflows, protocols, and best practices, as well as partner with operational and clinical leadership to address program needs, service gaps, and care delivery improvements
