Job Description

New and recent grads are encouraged to begin their career as a full-time Investigator / Caseworker with Liberty Healthcare and the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services Adult Protective Services Program.

This mission of this program is to investigate reports of need, and if substantiated, mitigate or eliminate imminent risk of abuse, neglect, exploitation, or abandonment for adults who are living with disabilities.

Your day-to-day work will involve traveling throughout the region, conducting investigations in residences, determining if reports are substantiated, documenting findings, developing plans, and managing active cases.

Starting pay is approximately $46,000 per year, which is paid $22.12 per hour. Opportunities are also occasionally available to earn additional income by working optional overtime and taking on additional cases. You will also be eligible for biannual performance bonuses of $750.

This position will require you to travel primarily in either Lancaster, Lebanon, Dauphin or Centre County (depending on your location), and if necessary into the immediately surrounding counties. 

You must have your own vehicle. Work-related mileage and toll expenses are reimbursed.

This is challenging work that comes with a high degree of autonomy. You can expect a flexible work schedule which will include occasional evening hours.

You will earn 30 days of paid time off annually which you may use for holidays, vacation, personal time, and sick leave. Other benefits are also offered. Adult Protective Services training and Investigator certification is provided to new hires.

A Bachelor's degree is preferred, however relevant experience will be considered as a substitute for a college degree. Relevant experience includes work in these areas:

  • Behavioral health, mental health, or intellectual and developmental disabilities services
  • Field-based healthcare or human services
  • Service Coordinator, Supports Coordinator or Program Specialist roles
  • Child, Family and Youth Services case management experience (County CYF)
  • Law enforcement
  • Case management or other protective services

Knowledge of Social Assistance Management Systems (SAMS) and Home and Community Service Information Systems (HCSIS) is helpful, and Spanish speaking skills are a plus.

Liberty Healthcare Corporation provides a wide array of health and human services to people throughout the United States. We are an equal opportunity employer and diverse organization which actively seeks veterans, people who have disabilities, and individuals of all backgrounds to join our growing organization.

Liberty Healthcare is fully committed to diversity and inclusion. Many of the Investigators who work for the Adult Protective Services program work through a collaborative partnership between Liberty Healthcare and Advance Sourcing Concepts - a Pennsylvania small diverse women-owned business.
