Administrative LeadershipWorking in close collaboration with the Associate Medical Director of Medical Respite, Director of Nursing for Medical Respite and Executive Director of Medical Respite, the Medical Director participates in the overall vision-setting, management, and resource stewardship of the Medical Respite Program, which employs roughly 250 staff, including over 100 nurses. Patients are often medically complex: the most common conditions managed in medical respite include infections (e.g., pneumonia, cellulitis, abscesses, HIV, and most recently COVID-19), acute exacerbations of chronic disease (e.g., COPD, CHF, ESLD), peri-operative and peri-procedural care needs, cancer care, and end of life care.
