　　Riverside Community Care has exciting opportunity for a Registered Nurse/Licensed Practical Nurse to join our Outpatient Somerville team!

　　The RN/LPN nurse is an integral part of the outpatient interdisciplinary treatment team, including clinicians, nurses, case managers, peer/recovery coaches, prescribers, nurses, and medical assistants. The nurse is responsible for providing direct care and care coordination for adolescents and adults primarily receiving medicated assisted treatment (MAT), injectable antipsychotics, or who have complex medical concerns in need of nursing case management. The nurse also completes medical screenings and assessments, follows up on lab work and referrals or admissions, and consults to other team members.
