- Integrate virtual technologies into day-to-day practice to perform visits, when appropriate.

What must you have?

- Strong assessment, decision-making, and case management skills.
- Excellent interpersonal and communication skills; able to resolve conflicts and disagreements effectively.
- Good time management skills, with the ability to work independently and co-operatively in a busy and fast-paced multidisciplinary environment.
- A valid driver’s license and access to a reliable vehicle.
