Job description

PRN: Urgent Care Advanced Practitioner - PA-c

• Part-time
• Shift: Day
• Location: UM Urgent Care Glen Burnie
• Position Type: Exempt

The University of Maryland Urgent Care is dedicated to providing compassionate, high-quality, patient, family and community centered care. We strive to transform the way we deliver health care to bring convenience and value to every patient in the communities we serve.

This position encompasses the Anne Arundel County region of Maryland and includes equal coverage of our centers located in Glen Burnie and Pasadena, MD. UM Urgent Care providers are the leaders of our urgent care facilities, providing excellent care to our patients, creating signature patient experiences and working closely with medical assistants and x-ray technologists. We care for patients from one year of age and older, providing a diverse array of services from treating upper respiratory infections, sprains and strains, and applying sutures, to employee health physicals, work-related injuries, and preoperative exams.

PRN providers are required to give at least 2-3 days of availability each month, with two of those days being weekends. All PRN providers must also provide one day of availability each month to be the 'emergency on call' provider for all of our facilities.

Candidates must be a licensed Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant in good standing in the state of Maryland (candidates may have a license pending approval), and have an NPI number, DEA, and CDS (or be in the process of receiving those items). Candidates must have successfully completed a bachelor of arts or sciences degree required for admission to their respective nurse practitioner or physician assistant professional school. Additionally, having some experience as a provider, nurse, or tech in the fields of urgent care, intensive care, emergency medicine, or primary care is very helpful. It is required that candidates have a proactive, growth-focused mindset, are passionate about providing high-quality care to their patients, and are intellectually curious and open to constructive feedback.

We provide side-by-side clinical training shifts at the onset of employment to ensure new providers have the hands-on procedure skill, basic clinical knowledge, and electronic health records fluency necessary to be successful. We also provide support for our providers with constant APP and physician leadership available telephonically for all operating hours.
