Join Jamaica Hospital Medical Center

Jamaica Hospital Medical Center—one of America’s 100 Best Hospitals by Healthgrades—is a 384-bed, not-for-profit, fully accredited community teaching hospital serving Queens since 1891, where we started in just a four-bedroom house. Today, we deliver nationally recognized care in cardiology, stroke, oncology, imaging, and emergency medicine, and are New York State’s only Primary Heart Attack Center and the first Comprehensive Stroke Center.

With an expanded Level I Trauma Center, Pediatric Emergency Department, modern maternity services, and over 120,000 ER visits annually, we offer dynamic opportunities for professional growth, impact and clinical excellence. Through our affiliation with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and the upcoming opening of our newly built, state-of-the-art Cancer Center, we continue to expand access to world-class care.

As a safety-net hospital, filling a void for the people in the community, we proudly serve all patients regardless of ability to pay. Join us during this exciting period of growth and help shape the future of healthcare.

Mission: To serve our patients and the community in a way that is second to none. 

Vision: To be the premier integrated healthcare delivery system by providing the highest quality, most cost-effective service, which is accessible and sensitive to all.

Jamaica Hospital Medical Center’s Critical Time Intervention program provides care management services for adults with serious mental illness. CTI model is a time-limited form of case management (9 months) that focuses on helping people with severe mental illness and a history of homelessness. The goal is to address problems in access to and delivery of services by creating relationships between clients and individuals in the community and reinforcing existing relationships. Our clinical teams utilize an evidence based approach to provide intensive outreach, engagement and care coordination services to these individuals.

Case Managers provide Critical Time Intervention services and carry a caseload. Care managers develop the person-centered care plan, share knowledge of community resources, provide linkage to resources, engage individuals in skill building, offer crisis management, collaborate with other providers, assist individuals in navigating complex systems, and work with informal supports. Care Managers have care coordination skills that are needed for the population and setting.

We are currently seeking experienced care managers for immediate full-time opportunities.
