Responsibilities

The Center for Autism Services and Transition (CAST) offers medical care for adults on the autism spectrum.

 

CAST provides care for patients aged 18-26 who are diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder and transitioning from pediatric to adult care. Once established as a patient, CAST providers will provide long term primary care. Patients can access physicians with the experience to provide comprehensive care for adults with autism and to treat their related, often complex health care needs.

 

The Clinical Nurse Care Coordinator collaborates with clinic team members to provide evidence-based patient-centered care to patients, helping them to stay up to date on their care plans and related goals towards improving health.

The Clinical Nurse Care Coordinator has a special focus on high-risk medically complex patients, patients on specific disease registries, patients with disorders or chronic physical or intellectual disabilities and patients in care transitions (i.e. pediatric to adult care, recent inpatient admissions and discharges, ED follow-up, care facility discharges).

This RN acts as a liaison with patient’s family members and other agencies, facilitating improved communication with the aim of providing comprehensive whole person care.

The Clinical Nurse Care Coordinator stays up to date on standards, assisting with programs and processes.
