Job description

We are seeking an experienced Nurse Practitioner (NP) to provide high-quality, focused care in 1-2 nursing facilities. In this PM&R-centered role, you will round on patients, identifying and treating barriers to recovery such as mobility issues, pain management, wound care, functional decline, and rehabilitation needs. This position emphasizes efficiency, autonomy, and balance, allowing you to deliver targeted interventions without the demands of extended hours or emergencies.

Key Responsibilities

• Conduct rounds in assigned nursing facilities, seeing patients twice per week to monitor progress and address recovery barriers in a PM&R framework.
• Manage an average of 5-15 patient encounters per day, with each interaction lasting approximately 5-7 minutes for focused assessments, treatments, and care planning.
• Collaborate with interdisciplinary teams (e.g., physicians, therapists, and facility staff) to develop and implement individualized recovery plans.
• Perform charting and documentation remotely from home using our efficient electronic health record (EHR) system.
• Maintain compliance with all regulatory standards, including those specific to PM&R and post-acute care.
• Decide and maintain your own consistent rounding schedule within daytime weekday hours, providing flexibility while ensuring patient needs are met.

What We Offer

• Work-Life Balance: No on-call duties, after-hours, weekends, or holidays—round exclusively during weekday daytime hours for a predictable and sustainable schedule.
• Flexibility: Set your own consistent rounding schedule to fit your life.
• Compensation: Competitive full-time salary plus performance-based bonuses.
• Benefits: Comprehensive package including health insurance, paid time off, professional development opportunities, and more (details provided upon application).
• Supportive Environment: Remote charting, advanced tools, and a collaborative team focused on patient-centered care.
• Lucrative RVU based pay plan.
