Dementia Care Navigator / Social Worker

Help Families Navigate Dementia with Confidence and Compassion

Suburban Geriatrics – A Leader in Geriatric Primary Care

At Suburban Geriatrics, we don’t just treat patients — we support entire families.

Through the CMS GUIDE Model, we are transforming how dementia care is delivered. Our Dementia Care Navigators serve as advocates, educators, and steady guides for patients living with dementia and the caregivers who walk beside them every day.

If you’re passionate about helping seniors age in place — and you believe caregivers deserve just as much support as patients — this role is for you.

Why This Role Matters

Dementia care can feel overwhelming for families.

You will be the person who makes it manageable.

As a GUIDE Dementia Care Navigator, you’ll:

• Develop individualized, person-centered care plans
• Serve as the primary point of contact for patients and caregivers
• Provide regular check-ins (in-person and by phone)
• Connect families with community resources, transportation, meal programs, and support groups
• Offer education on dementia progression and behavioral management
• Help coordinate respite services to reduce caregiver burnout
• Navigate complex healthcare systems and coordinate across providers
• Ensure timely and compliant documentation in alignment with CMS GUIDE requirements

This is hands-on, relationship-driven work. You won’t be sitting behind a desk all day — you’ll be in facilities, on the phone, and in the community, building trust and making real impact.
