Addiction Case Manager - Aurora, Colorado CeDAR – Center for Dependency, Addiction and Rehabilitation
When it comes to your caseload, less is more.
There is nothing more rewarding than sharing in the success of your patients’ recovery during their challenging journey. A success that is far more likely to be achieved when you are assigned a manageable caseload. One that doesn’t spread you too thin, and as a result, weaken your patients’ chances for a full recovery. That is why, here at UCH’s CeDAR – Center for Dependency, Addiction and Rehabilitation, we have a policy to only assign an average of five cases at a time.
The University of Colorado Hospital in the metro-Denver area is not only a three time MAGNET hospital and the region’s only academic teaching hospital, it consistently ranks among the best academic medical centers in the country by U.S. News and World Report.

You will be hands on, alongside the patient during treatment; instructive, supportive, persuasive, and most of all, caring. Fortunately, the resources available for our patients greatly enhance their ability to achieve a quicker and more lasting recovery. If you believe in longer term care and in treating multiple addictions and co-occurring disorders, then CeDAR is the perfect environment for you!
You will need a Bachelor’s Degree and a CAC III to fulfill this very important role, as well as at least two years of Addiction Program experience. A Master’s Degree is preferred, but if you are an exceptional candidate, you can achieve this here through our Continuing Education and Tuition Reimbursement Programs. To further show our appreciation for your intense dedication in this role, we will reward you with time and a half for working beyond 40 hours a week.

Our staff features clinicians with special training and certifications in substance abuse, gambling, trauma, eating disorders, and sex addiction. Training for EMDR and Somatic Experiencing is provided for clinicians who need it.

Requirements for this position:
- Master’s Degree in a Behavioral Health Field
- Licensure preferred
