Medical Writer and Clinical Content Reviewer, Addiction Medicine / Detox (MD/DO) — Contract, Remote
A DHCS-licensed residential detox facility with two locations in the California, is rebuilding our website from the ground up with a focus on clinical accuracy, Google E-E-A-T compliance, and genuine value for patients and families navigating addiction treatment decisions.

WHAT YOU WILL DO
As a writer, you will produce original, clinically accurate health articles on topics including alcohol and drug detox, withdrawal management, medication-assisted treatment, co-occurring disorders, and related subjects. Articles are typically 1,000 to 1,500 words, written for a general audience at an 8th to 9th grade reading level, and structured around specific SEO briefs you will receive before each assignment.
As a reviewer, you will evaluate articles written by other members of the content team for clinical accuracy, flag errors, and approve content before publication. Your name and credentials will appear on content you have written or reviewed.
