Clinical Liaison in LTAC

Published

So I just applied for this position within my facility and I know a little about the ins and outs of it but looking for some more particulars. I'm really excited about this opportunity and hopeful that my facility sees me as enough of an asset to promote me to this position. Any information on this type of position is GREATLY appreciated.

So I got more insight on the position during my interview and through internal contacts. I have a corporate interview today which is the final step so we will see if I get offered the position. It is truly a dream job for me and I cannot wait to see what the outcome is. I could start immediately because I currently work weekends for the facility so I can hopefully start training ASAP. Feeling very optimistic and excited about this amazing opportunity!!

What is the clinical liaison? I'm wondering if I have heard it by another name. CONGRATS! on the job

Essentially it is a marketing position where you market the facility and try to get referrals for admissions. It requires local travel.

very cool. So many hospitals have no clue what an LTAC really is. Good Luck on your new adventure!

Yes this is why the position is so important....you must educate the hospital on your services to get referrals. I think LTAC has a lot to offer

Congratulations! I was just promoted to ADON of my facility! (Haven't even started yet) It's so rewarding to be recognized and promoted isn't it?

Congratulations! That's a very important position! My area has two LTACHs; one of them is well-known, although I had misconceptions about what it was. I thought it was a sub-acute rehab place that happened to take pt's on a vent. The other, I literally had no idea existed until I saw their ad when looking for a job; I've lived in my area for 11 years, but this LTACH is small (60 beds) and tucked away behind a very plush residential neighborhood in a suburb. I ended up working there for a year and a half. Our liaison said the same thing, that many of the traditional hospitals didn't know about this LTACH until she educated them.

How is the job going?

How do you like the position as a clinical liaison. Can you tell me more about what you do, in terms of getting referrals for your organization. I recently applied for a clinical liaison positon and its a little scary for me. Any insight you can provide will be very helpful.

Thanks so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111
