general supervision of the Program Director I functioned as part of a team

assigned to support consumers living in independent apartments in the

community. I assisted assigned individuals in developing and maintaining

viable living, working and social situations in the community by obtaining

needed medical, social, psychosocial, educational, financial, vocational

and other services. I participated in the provision of crisis intervention

services to participants. I traveled to/visit consumers' residences or

apartments, provided counsel, assistance and help the consumers, within

their capabilities and interests, in maintaining the greatest degree of

independent living. The majority of duties are often performed

independently under general supervision. 1/13-7/13

lectures and attended rounds with the interdisciplinary team of physicians,

nurses and counselors. I reported directly to the Clinical Director and

including treatment plans, treatment plan updates, hospital progress notes

and all documents required by New York State Office of Alcohol and

Substance Abuse Services. In the last 3 months at The Addiction Institute

I interned at the Opioid Treatment Program where I did assessments, had my

own patient case load, supervised periodic drug tests and conducted

individual and group counseling. 12/10-1/13
