About Us

At Holly Hughes & Co., we approach care differently — and we like it that way. Our Care Managers bring a deep commitment to lead with empathy while supporting people and families navigating the complex intersections of health, mental health, substance use, and social needs.

We follow a Quadruple Aim framework and all our team members have guiding principles for the shared work we do. In this role, here are those guiding principles in action:

• Quality:
  You use data-driven, outcome driven approach to care
• Experience:
  
  You offer empathy, honor autonomy, and advocate for equity to enhance people’s experience with the care
• Equity:
  You know health is influenced by access, identity, and power — and you work to close those gaps
• Reach:
  You help more people access the right care from the right person at the right time

This role is part of our Enhanced Care Management (ECM) team — a bold new service line designed for our patients who face multiple barriers to wellness. You’ll work side-by-side with our behavioral health clinicians and administrative team to deliver personalized, equity-driven care.

You will report to the Director of Behavioral Health.

• Building trusted relationships
• Partnering with people and providers in creating clear, actionable care plans
• Centering equity, autonomy, and integrity in all interactions
• Bringing flexible care to people where they are – in the community, where people reside, attending appointments and more

This is a direct outreach, fieldwork position. Approximately 80% of your time will be traveling independently throughout Santa Cruz and San Benito counties, with the remaining 20% of your time working in our Santa Cruz office for meetings and administrative work.

3. Crisis Care Coordination

• Provide family and systems support during crisis or reentry

You’ll Thrive in This Role If You:
