Who are we?
Horizon Services, Inc. (HSI) is a nonprofit established in 1974 that offers addiction treatment with the goal of reducing substance use and mental health related challenges for people from all walks of life, including those from some of the most disenfranchised and marginalized communities. We practice our values of Integrity, Respect, Professionalism, and Compassion to provide youth prevention, youth and adult outpatient, sobering programs, withdrawal management, and co-occurring capable residential programs to support the well-being of women, men, youth, LGBTQIA+, and BIPOC clients to live healthy, fulfilling and constructive lives. HSI is an inclusive workplace and a learning community where our collective experiences
enrich each other’s growth.
The Case Manager at Gateway Medical Sobering Center is responsible for providing comprehensive care coordination and discharge services for individuals experiencing acute intoxication from alcohol, opioids, methamphetamines, or other substances. Clients often present with co-occurring behavioral health conditions and require short-term monitoring before transitioning to the appropriate level of care. The Case Manager ensures timely referrals, appointment scheduling, transportation coordination, and linkage to services such as detox, residential treatment, outpatient care, housing resources, and medication-assisted treatment (MAT). This role involves close collaboration with the Registered Nurse Program Manager, NP, PA, LVNs, EMTs, and Recovery Specialists to ensure that client needs are met within the 23-hour stabilization period, using a trauma-informed and harm-reduction approach that prioritizes dignity, safety, and continuity of care.
How can you make a difference in people’s lives?
In this role, you’ll make a difference in the lives of people with substance abuse challenges, and often with co-occurring conditions. You’ll use and grow your skills in compassionate care, crisis intervention and de-escalation, in a supportive and inclusive work environment. You’ll have the opportunity to provide our community with substance abuse treatment to help people who are just discovering possibilities in their journey, going from a place of hopelessness to a place where they are valued and have the potential for a better life.
