About the job

In the United States, one in five adults experience a mental health illness and over 12 million people have thoughts of suicide. Mental health crises can be some of the most difficult times in a person’s life, and over 17 million people seeking behavioral health care experience a delay in accessing care.

Willow Health is on a mission to significantly improve this experience by expanding affordable access to high-quality, evidence-based intensive behavioral health care. In order to make this mission a reality, we built a virtual crisis care program that provides personalized, recovery-oriented care for people experiencing behavioral health crises.

Willow Health offers patients immediate access to evidence-based virtual crisis psychotherapy, medication management, certified peer coaching, care management, and around the clock crisis coverage, while working to connect patients to the most appropriate next level of care.

Overview:

• Scaling Operations: Collaborate with leadership to develop and implement strategies for scaling practice operations. Evaluate current processes and systems, identifying areas for improvement and scalability. Provide recommendations on technology and tools that can enhance scalability
• Process Improvement: Conduct regular assessments of existing processes and identify opportunities for improvement. Lead initiatives to streamline operations, reduce inefficiencies, and enhance overall productivity. Implement best practices to ensure a consistent and high-quality patient experience
• Technology Integration: Stay informed about technological advancements in healthcare and telemedicine. Evaluate and integrate new technologies that align with the clinic’s goals and improve operational efficiency. Collaborate with IT teams to ensure seamless integration of technology solutions
• Team Collaboration: Foster a collaborative and positive working environment among clinical staff. Work closely with cross-functional teams, including IT, finance, and administration, to achieve clinic objectives.

Our ideal candidate has:

All team members are expected to embody our values:

• Safety above all else. We operate in a space with life and death repercussions, and every member of our team takes that responsibility seriously. We all look for and call out patient safety concerns
• Maximize measurable impact. We put our patients first. We are tenacious about doing good, and we have the outcomes to prove it. Our work is guided by measurable hypotheses that we test and re-evaluate.
• Build inclusively and equitably. We are committed to decreasing the systemic inequalities in healthcare and to building an organization where a diverse group of patients and employees can thrive. We seek to understand and learn from differences rather than minimize them.
• Stakes determine speed. Where the stakes are low, we optimize for quick learnings and progress. Where the stakes are higher, we are more thoughtful and methodical. Where safety is a concern, we optimize for zero errors.
• Constellations, not stars. We believe a well functioning team is worth much more than a collection of individuals, and we invest in bringing out the best in each other. We are kind, loyal, and direct
• Honor commitments; honor yourself. We do our best work when we are fulfilled, our core needs are met, and there is joy along the way. We are clear about what we can and can’t do so that we can honor our commitments and fulfill them excellently.
