Job Description
Embark on a meaningful, community-centered journey as a Medical Social Worker in Georgia, Cumming, where every case is an opportunity to empower patients and families during challenging times. This role places you at the heart of compassionate care, coordinating with medical teams to ensure patients receive holistic support—from psychosocial assessments and discharge planning to resource linkage and crisis intervention. As you begin the assignment on 01/19/2026, you’ll enjoy weeks-long engagements designed with consistency and growth in mind, with guaranteed hours of 40.0 per week. The compensation reflects the value of your expertise, with a competitive weekly pay range of $1,708-$1,827, providing stability as you deliver deliberate, outcomes-driven social work across diverse clinical settings. Georgia’s rich landscapes give you more than a title; they offer memorable experiences, from the winding trails of the Blue Ridge foothills and the scenic Rivers of the Chattahoochee to the storied streets of Savannah and Atlanta. Beyond the work, you’ll have the chance to explore the state’s beauty—stone-carved history along Savannah’s riverfront, the moss-draped oaks of Forsyth Park, the coastal charm of Jekyll Island, the panoramic views from Stone Mountain, and the welcoming communities that make Georgia feel like home.
Location benefits go beyond the local scene. Cumming sits within the Atlanta metro area, offering easy access to a vibrant cultural mix, world-class dining, regional arts, and outdoor recreation that fits a busy clinician’s schedule. You’ll enjoy the benefits of a thriving professional community, with opportunities to collaborate across hospitals, clinics, and social service agencies that value integrated care. For professionals who crave breadth, this assignment also opens doors to placements in various locations across the U.S., allowing you to broaden your clinical perspective, experience different care models, and build an adaptable toolkit that enhances your long-term career trajectory. In Georgia, you’ll find a pro-healthcare infrastructure that supports social work practice through multidisciplinary teams, patient advocacy, and robust community partnerships, all while enjoying a cost of living that makes it feasible to balance professional fulfillment with personal exploration.
Role specifics and benefits are thoughtfully designed to support your professional growth and your well-being while traveling with the company. In this Medical Social Worker position, your core responsibilities will include conducting comprehensive psychosocial assessments, identifying barriers to care, coordinating discharge planning with interdisciplinary teams, connecting patients and families to community resources, assisting with advance care planning, and providing crisis intervention when needed. You’ll advocate for patients’ rights and preferences, help families navigate complex medical systems, and monitor progress toward goals for both short- and long-term outcomes. Your clinical judgment will guide care transitions, ensuring that social determinants of health are addressed, that resources align with payer requirements, and that care plans honor cultural values and personal wishes. The role supports ongoing professional development through structured mentorship, opportunities to expand your scope of practice within medical social work, and pathways for advancement within the organization. We’re proud to offer a bonus structure as part of a comprehensive benefits package, along with housing assistance to ease travel logistics and secure comfortable accommodations during temporary assignments. Extension opportunities are available for outstanding performers, providing continuity and the chance to deepen your impact with familiar teams and settings. And because your safety and peace of mind matter, you’ll receive 24/7 support while traveling with the company, ensuring you have a steadfast partner as you navigate complex cases, travel realities, and evolving healthcare environments. It’s a compassionate, professional path that respects your expertise and rewards your commitment.
Our values as a company center on empowering staff, fostering a culture of growth, and delivering a supportive work environment where collaboration and accountability go hand in hand. You’ll be welcomed into a team that prioritizes open communication, continuous learning, and shared success. We celebrate career advancement, offering clear development tracks, access to resources, and dedicated support as you expand your practice areas—from inpatient social work to community-based outreach and comprehensive care coordination.

You’ll find colleagues who mentor, listen, and invest in your professional journey, with leadership that’s accessible and invested in your well-being and career goals.
