Exciting Opportunity: Nurse Practitioner – Urgent Care, Physician Assistant – Acute Care, and Urgent Care Physician Assistant

Join our dynamic healthcare team in a pivotal role that offers the chance to make a meaningful impact on patients’ lives. As a Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant specializing in urgent and acute care, you will operate independently in fast-paced environments, providing critical care to diverse patient populations, including both adults and pediatrics. This position is ideal for licensed, board-certified healthcare professionals seeking to leverage their skills in a supportive, professional setting committed to excellence and growth.

In this role, you will see and treat all patients as the sole provider at the center, managing a patient volume of approximately 30 patients per day, with up to 40 ppd depending on the site. You will perform minor procedures such as I&D, lac repairs, ear irrigations, and other urgent care interventions. Proficiency with Epic EMR systems is required, along with certification in BLS and relevant board credentials (Board Certification, NCCPA, NP Boards). Experience of at least 12 months in urgent or emergency care settings is necessary; new graduates are not considered.

Candidates should possess excellent soft skills for effective patient and staff communication, along with the ability to work independently without supervision. Strong clinical judgment, attention to detail, and proficiency with procedures are essential. Additionally, familiarity with utilizing Epic EMR and the ability to troubleshoot minor technical issues are vital for success.

Preferred qualifications include experience in pediatric and adult urgent care, comfort with EMR workflows, and prior management of a diverse case load. While travel reimbursement is not available, candidates must be willing to support multiple nearby locations within a 65-mile radius of their residence.

This role offers a competitive hourly pay rate of $1.00, complemented by comprehensive benefits including weekly pay via direct deposit, medical insurance through a W-2 arrangement, a robust referral bonus program, paid sick leave in accordance with applicable laws, and reimbursements for licensure, certification, travel, and other related expenses. Our dedicated team provides 24/7 support to ensure your ongoing success and professional development.

Candidates should be prepared for a clinical interview, EMR training, and onboarding before their first solo shift. The position involves working in urgent care centers handling adult and pediatric patients, with no supervision required once trained. Multiple locations are available, and support within a 65-mile radius is expected.

Take the next step in your healthcare career—apply now to become a vital part of our urgent care team, where your skills will directly improve patient outcomes and enhance community health. We look forward to reviewing your application.
