Travel Social Worker Medical Social Worker Job

Embark on a meaningful journey as a Medical Social Worker in Albany, Oregon, where your expertise will illuminate pathways through complex medical journeys, discharge planning, and the essential connections to community supports.

In this role, you’ll partner with physicians, nurses, case managers, and families to navigate barriers, reduce disparities, and advocate for patients’ dignity and self-determination.

Your skilled assessments, compassionate counseling, and resource navigation will help patients and families experience smoother transitions—from hospital to home, from uncertainty to informed decision-making, and from crisis to stability.

If you’re drawn to a role that blends clinical insight with heartfelt advocacy, this is your opportunity to lead patient-centered care across hospital units, clinics, and interdisciplinary teams in a thriving Pacific Northwest community that values humanity in healthcare.

Oregon’s natural beauty awaits beyond the ward’s doors.

From the lush Willamette Valley’s vineyards and forests to the awe-inspiring rim of Crater Lake, from windswept beaches along the coast to the snow-kissed peaks of the Cascades, Oregon offers landscapes that replenish and inspire.

Albany sits in the heart of the Willamette Valley, a community known for its friendly neighborhoods, robust local culture, and easy access to outdoor recreation, shopping, and higher education influences.

Whether you crave peaceful strolls along tree-lined streets, weekend adventures in nearby mountains, or the buzz of regional events and dining, Oregon’s diverse scenery invites balance, renewal, and sustained energy for your professional mission.

Location benefits come with the flexibility to grow your practice while rooted in a supportive community.

Working in Albany allows you to contribute to a close-knit care network that prioritizes collaborative problem-solving, culturally competent care, and innovative discharge planning.

You’ll enjoy a setting that values work-life balance, professional development, and meaningful family-centered outcomes.

In addition, you’ll have the opportunity to participate in multi-site placements across the United States, expanding your clinical exposure to varying hospital environments, patient populations, and care models.

This breadth of experience strengthens your clinical reasoning, broadens your horizon for certifications and leadership roles, and keeps your daily practice dynamic and rewarding.

In this essential role, you’ll conduct comprehensive psychosocial assessments, identify social determinants of health impacting medical outcomes, and coordinate robust discharge planning with social workers, social service agencies, and community resources.

You’ll advocate for financial assistance, transportation to appointments, housing options, caregiver support, and safety planning when needed.

You’ll facilitate timely referrals to palliative care, mental health services, guardianship or conservatorship processes when appropriate, and community-based services that prevent readmission.

You’ll document findings meticulously, maintain compliance with regulatory standards, and ensure family-centered communication that respects cultural values and language needs.

The position offers a clear path for professional growth :

• mentorship from experienced clinicians, structured continuing education support, and opportunities to specialize within medical social work—pediatrics, oncology, geriatrics, palliative care, or behavioral health—according to your interests.
• You’ll receive competitive compensation with a guaranteed 40 hours per week, a weekly pay range of $1,925–$2,002, and the chance to add a completion or performance-based bonus, along with housing assistance and extension opportunities that honor your dedication and outcomes.
• A dedicated travel support team stands ready around the clock to assist you during assignments, ensuring you always have reliable assistance, guidance, and resources wherever you go.
• Our company values your growth and well-being.
• We are committed to empowering our staff, advancing careers through targeted development pathways, and fostering a supportive, respectful, and inclusive work environment.
• You’ll join a mission-driven culture that rewards curiosity, evidence-based practice, compassionate leadership, and teamwork.
• You’ll find colleagues who celebrate your successes, encourage curiosity, and invest in your ongoing professional journey.
• This is more than a job; it’s a platform where your expertise shapes care trajectories, enhances patient and family experiences, and strengthens the communities you serve.
