Comprehensive Care, Community, and Culture (C4P)-UChicago
 
 
 
The Comprehensive Care, Community and Culture Program (C4P) aims to improve the overall health and well-being of patients in the program by addressing a wide range of medical and social needs. The C4P program builds off of the Comprehensive Care Physician Program, which offers patients at high risk of hospitalization a comprehensive care physician (CCP) who cares for them in both the hospital and the clinic. In addition to receiving care from a CCP, C4P patients are regularly asked about a range of unmet social needs and given access to a community health worker and community-based arts and culture programming. The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation has funded a randomized trial of C4P at the University of Chicago. This posting is for positions located at the University of Chicago Medical Center in Hyde Park. We are currently recruiting for positions to begin in Fall 2023. Please view our website at https://ccpprogram.uchicago.edu/americorps-program/ for more information on these positions and start date. We have positions that are full time (40 hours per week) or part time (25-30 hours per week) for 6 months to a year. AmeriCorps members at the University of Chicago will be responsible for extending the reach of the C4P program to impact patient experience with care and health outcomes, lower hospitalization rates, and resolve unmet social needs for participants. Members will also support community engagement related to vitamin D and vitamin D research. Learn more and submit a preliminary application at https://ccpprogram.uchicago.edu/americorps-program/.
