Job Summary: The Service Coordinator works alongside a team of advocates to help adults with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) seeking admission to a Medicaid-certified nursing facility, who may also have a co-occurring mental health diagnosis, to ensure access and continuity of care.
The Service Coordinators' day-to-day activities follow the federally mandated Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) program guidelines. The PASRR program screens people seeking admission to ensure appropriate placement and access to required services.

To the extent required, a Habilitation Coordinators' focus may shift to primarily support functions, which can be referred to as PASRR evaluator tasks.

Efforts commonly include working within a multidisciplinary team consisting of internal or external community partners.
Regular, predictable attendance is considered to be an essential requirement for this position. Other duties may be assigned. May require a flexible work schedule.
