Join Our Mission. Help Change Lives.

Camp Baer Treatment Center, in partnership with Ascension Recovery Services, is seeking a compassionate and experienced Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) to join our growing medical team in Morgantown, West Virginia.

As we prepare to welcome patients to our new treatment center, we're looking for a provider who wants to be part of something meaningful from the beginning.

This position will begin on a part-time basis, with the opportunity to transition into a full-time role as our program grows and patient census increases.

Our ideal candidate is confident in their clinical abilities, values collaborative care, and is passionate about helping individuals overcome substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health challenges.

Whether you have experience in addiction medicine or are an experienced Family Nurse Practitioner interested in expanding your practice into behavioral health, we'd love to connect with you.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Grow with us: Begin part-time with the opportunity to transition into a full-time position as our center expands.
• Meaningful clinical autonomy: Practice within your scope while helping shape medical services at a new treatment center.
• Make a real impact: Help individuals navigate withdrawal, stabilize medically, and begin their recovery journey.
• Collaborative environment: Work alongside an interdisciplinary team of medical, nursing, clinical, and behavioral health professionals.
• Mission-driven culture: Join an organization committed to compassionate, evidence-based treatment and long-term recovery.
• Professional growth: Expand your experience in addiction medicine, withdrawal management, and integrated behavioral healthcare.

What You'll Do

As a Family Nurse Practitioner, you'll play an essential role in delivering safe, high-quality medical care to individuals receiving treatment for substance use disorders and co-occurring conditions.

Key Responsibilities Include

• Conduct comprehensive medical assessments, histories, and physical examinations for patients entering treatment.
• Evaluate and manage acute and chronic medical conditions within your scope of practice.
• Assess and manage patients experiencing alcohol, opioid, and other substance withdrawal using established clinical protocols.
• Develop and implement individualized medical treatment plans in collaboration with the Medical Director and interdisciplinary team.
• Prescribe, manage, and monitor medications, including medications for addiction treatment (MAT), as clinically appropriate and legally authorized.
• Order, interpret, and follow up on laboratory testing and diagnostic studies.
• Monitor patient progress, medication effectiveness, potential interactions, and adverse reactions.
• Collaborate closely with nursing, clinical, and behavioral health teams to coordinate comprehensive patient care.
• Identify medical emergencies or changes in patient condition and initiate appropriate interventions or referrals.
• Provide patient education related to medications, health conditions, wellness, and recovery.
• Complete accurate, timely clinical documentation in the electronic health record.
• Participate in treatment planning, clinical consultations, quality improvement, and other medical team activities.
• Maintain compliance with applicable state and federal regulations, professional standards, and organizational policies.

What We're Looking For

Required Qualifications

• Master's or doctoral degree from an accredited Nurse Practitioner program.
• Current, unrestricted West Virginia APRN license or eligibility to obtain licensure before employment.
• National board certification as a Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-C or FNP-BC).
• Active DEA registration or ability to obtain registration as required for the position.
• Current BLS certification.
• Strong clinical assessment, diagnostic, and medication management skills.
• Ability to work independently within the applicable scope of practice while collaborating effectively with an interdisciplinary team.
• Commitment to compassionate, patient-centered, trauma-informed care.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in addiction medicine, behavioral health, primary care, emergency medicine, or inpatient treatment settings.
• Familiarity with alcohol and opioid withdrawal management.
• Experience prescribing or managing medications for opioid use disorder, including buprenorphine.
• Knowledge of co-occurring mental health conditions and integrated treatment approaches.
• Experience working in residential treatment or medically monitored withdrawal management settings.

Addiction medicine experience is preferred but not required. We welcome experienced FNPs who are interested in developing their expertise in substance use disorder treatment.

Schedule & Growth Opportunity

This is an on-site position that will initially begin with a part-time schedule.
