Descripción del empleo

As a Midlevel Provider at CARES 360 Memphis…

You’ll play an important role in expanding access to HIV treatment, prevention, STI services, and sexual healthcare through the CARES 360 Memphis low-barrier clinic located at Friends For All.

In this role, you’ll serve as an accessible entry point to care for individuals who may be newly diagnosed with HIV, looking to begin PrEP, seeking STI treatment, or reconnecting with HIV care. You’ll provide timely clinical services, answer patient questions, initiate appropriate treatment, and help connect patients with ongoing care and supportive resources.

Unlike a traditional appointment-based clinic, this location incorporates walk-in access to help reduce delays and barriers to care. You’ll work within established clinical protocols while collaborating with case management, prevention, behavioral health, pharmacy, phlebotomy, and other supportive services.

We’re looking for a provider who is compassionate, clinically confident, adaptable, and collaborative. This is also a great opportunity for someone who enjoys taking initiative and wants to contribute ideas as the clinic continues to grow and expand its services.

• Work closely with the Medical Director and clinical leadership to provide coordinated patient care
• Participate in quality improvement efforts and the continued development of the low-barrier clinic model
• Identify opportunities to improve workflows, referral processes, rapid-treatment pathways, and the overall patient experience
