Job Description:

Community Care Center | Executive Director 2135 New Walkertown Rd, Winston-Salem, NC 27101, USA

Full-time

Company Description The Community Care Center is North Carolina’s largest medical clinic serving uninsured patients and is one of the largest such clinics in the US. The Center was founded in October 2000 by physicians with the Forsyth-Stokes-Davie County Medical Society with Jim Robinson as the founding Executive Director. Having operated under his leadership since that time, the Center seeks to find his replacement for that role.

A volunteer-based, free, non-profit healthcare clinic, the Community Care Center is a 501(C)(3) tax-exempt non-profit corporation that provides health care services and medicines to uninsured patients who don’t qualify for federal or private insurance and who have family incomes below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level. The Center believes that every patient, regardless of ability to pay, language, or country of origin, deserves high quality health care delivered with compassion, sensitivity, and respect. This care is delivered by a group of physicians who represent a mix of specialties and handle most cases in-house. The Center operates with the support of hundreds of volunteers, caring individuals who support the mission of the Center to help the whole person and family regardless of their ability to pay. Medical, dental, and non-medical staff donate over 10,000 hours annually to the operation of the Center.

The Center serves 2,500 unduplicated patients and conducts 10,725 patient visits annually. All patients at the clinic are below 200 percent of the federal poverty level; live in Forsyth, Stokes, or Davie County; and are uninsured. Sixteen percent of adults in Forsyth County, where the Center is located, are uninsured, as are another 14 and 15 percent of adults respectively in Stokes and Davie Counties.
