About Anthony Barrera

Energetic, motivated, and diversely educated young professional offering experience both in direct micro social work and quality management. Clinically, I have 3 years of behavioral case management experience 1 year of medical social work in a skilled nursing/long term care facility. In my 1.5 years in quality management, I worked on various projects focused in improving patient experience (CAHPS survey) and completing a county wide health assessment focused on the opioid epidemic. Currently I work for an integrated health care company managing a caseload of 120 patients with mental health and behavioral needs. Lastly, I am working on my 2nd graduate degree in clinical social work and plan to dedicate my first 2 post grad years working towards independent licensure (LCSW). If your organization offers paid internships in direct (micro) social work, I would love to connect.
