Inova Cares Clinic for Community Bridging (ICCCB) was developed to bridge gaps in care that patients experience as they transfer across care delivery settings between illness and recovery. The service focuses on transitional medical care and community collaboration in order to improve health outcomes of patients at the highest risk who lack access to needed resources. ICCCB has locations in Alexandria, Fairfax and Leesburg. The services offered support patients being discharged from an Inova hospital or Inova emergency room who either do not have a medical home or cannot get an appointment with their Primary Care Provider (PCP) within 72 hours following a hospital admission. Patients are typically followed by a hospitalist or nurse practitioner for one to three visits, while the patient and the care team work together to establish a permanent medical home in the community for the patient or transition the patient back to their PCP. Care includes medication reconciliation, medical management and anti-coagulation management if needed as well as referrals to assist with social determinants of health. ICCCB is currently seeking a RN Case Manager to join the Alexandria team.
