About Maryland Wellness
At our Upper Marlboro and Waldorf locations, we are committed to serving families who want to be known by the people who care for them, and who should never have to repeat themselves or get bounced around to be seen. We are looking for a Client and Provider Support Coordinator who treats the front desk as the first step of care, gets it right the first time, and brings the same steady, welcoming presence to both offices.

This individual will be the point of contact for continuing services whether in person, on the phone, or through written communication; thus, must provide quality customer service that aligns with the agency's values and standards of care.
