Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE)


Role: Transportation Manager Edenbridge PACE at Skyland Town Center

Location: Washington, DC 20020

Status: Full-time

Mission: To allow frail elderly people to age in the location of their choosing and continue to lead connected, meaningful lives

 

JOB SUMMARY
The Transportation Manager role offers a unique opportunity to help build the first PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) program in the District of Columbia within the framework of a supportive, innovative, and expert leadership team and company. Together with our coalition of strong partners within the community, the Transportation Manager will work closely with the Executive Director and transportation care team to carry out our Skyland PACE’s model of care, and have a transformative impact on a particularly under-served community in Wards 7 and 8.

Seven core principles drive our approach to care. These include:  

  1. Create and Sustain Meaningful Lives: Our model aims to help elders create and sustain meaningful lives — from social relationships, spirituality, cultural life, work, or service. We support elders with cognitive and physical disability to sustain meaning in their daily lives. We form close community partnerships to help elders engage outside our centers.
  2. Respect the Right to Independence:  Edenbridge aims always to follow our participants’ wishes. Wherever possible, participants maintain control over all decisions — from medical procedures to what to eat for dinner.
  3. Pay Attention to What Is Working Well:  Our goal is to multiply the days each participant is glad to be alive. We encourage participants’ positive experiences of daily life, supporting the things that matter most to them.
  4. Provide the Right Amount of Medical Care:  Elders often have many diagnoses, medications and specialists, involving complex care decisions. We help our participants understand their choices. We deliver thoughtful, appropriate and personalized care, doing what our participants want — nothing more and nothing less.
  5. Guide All the Care Provided:  We always follow and guide our participants’ care — in their homes, at our center, in the hospital, and everywhere.
  6. Live with Our Communities, Not Just in Them:  We work in communities where aging in place is valued and integrated care is a shared mission. We build deep relationships with community organizations (see video) beginning long before we open our doors. We aim to reach beyond the walls of the center to bring community members in and participants out for person-to-person connection.
  7. Employ Technology Thoughtfully, Not Aggressively:  We use technology because it can enrich the lives of participants, improving care and connecting family members with their loved ones and their care providers. But we use technology only to complement — never replace — direct human interaction.

To help us achieve this mission, we are looking for an experienced Transportation Manager who will oversee the transportation program, including hiring and managing drivers, tailored to the Skyland PACE goals that meet the needs of the frail elderly. 
 

Main Responsibilities:

  • Hires, trains, and manages drivers
  • Leads transportation meetings and attends IDT (interdisciplinary team) leadership meetings
  • Ensures highest safety and quality of transportation program
  • Ensures smooth scheduling and coverage of all transportation needs, including stepping in when necessary to cover scheduling and transportation

Qualifications:

  • GED or high school diploma required
  • Prior supervisory experience in a transportation environment preferred
  • Experience working with a frail or elderly population preferred

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability
Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability Form CC-305

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
