Our well-respected group has been providing services for 14 years and currently has 35 NP's on the team. The NP's are supported by our 2 psychiatrists. Experienced clinicians can have relative autonomy if you are comfortable with the patients & geriatric psychopharmacology.

We have streamlined & efficient documentation, real time administrative support, and we leverage technology to make everyone's workflow efficient. This position is perfect for someone who is motivated, self-directed, and prefers not to sit in the same office day after day.

• Basic proficiency with technology, including electronic health records (EHR).
• Strong organizational and documentation skills, with attention to regulatory compliance.
• Ability to provide in-person services at assigned facilities, up to 45 minutes.
• Ability to walk, stand, and move between patient rooms and offices within the facility throughout the day.

What We Provide:

• Rewarding experiences

The position is very low stress, relative to some other positions in behavioral health care. There is also some degree of flexibility in terms of hours. You will not be expected to take formal call (beyond reasonable availability to other team members if a clinical question arises). At the present time, there is no on call rounding or overnight phone calls, etc (subject to change).
