Job description

Primary Care Nurse Practitioner/Physician Assistant

Prima CARE is a 180-provider, physician-owned multispecialty group, based in Fall River, Massachusetts, currently employing more than 70 advanced practice providers. We are seeking a Primary Care Advanced Practice Provider (NP or PA) to join the office practice of a Family Medicine physician, 32 weekday hours per week, with no nights or weekends.

The APP would see adult and adolescent patients under physician supervision, assuming independent responsibility for patient care commensurate with his/her experience, training, and confidence. We are prepared to hire immediately and to begin the on-boarding and insurance credentialing so that the successful candidate can begin working as soon as possible. Experience is desirable, but we would consider a recent graduate with a strong background and an ability to work confidently and independently. Fluency in Portuguese is particularly valuable in Fall River, but not required.

The APP will be an employee of Prima CARE, but will function as a member of an office-based patient-focused team. The candidate must be licensed in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, hold a valid Drug Enforcement Agency certificate, and hold a Massachusetts Controlled Substances Registration. Compassion, maturity, and excellent communication skills are essential. Prima CARE uses eClinicalworks as its EMR for scheduling, documentation, and billing. The practice has the full support of Prima CARE specialists and testing facilities, which are all on-site and readily available. These include a full laboratory, radiology, cardiac and pulmonary testing, allergy, infectious diseases, etc.

Compensation is competitive, with benefits that include health insurance, malpractice coverage, a 401K retirement plan, a CME allowance, and vacation.

Fall River is in a lovely part of New England, surrounded by city, waterfront, suburban, or farmland communities. Twenty minutes from Providence, 45-60 minutes from Boston, and 30 minutes from Cape Cod and Newport, Fall River is an attractive location with a multitude of choices for home and recreation.
