Nurse Practitioner
About The Position
myPlace Health is a PACE organization backed by SCAN Group that provides older adults with customized medical care, social activities, and daily support. Its centers serve as community hubs where an interdisciplinary team coordinates care for medically and socially complex participants. The Nurse Practitioner provides comprehensive clinical care across the continuum and partners with the Interdisciplinary Team (IDT) to support participant assessment, care planning, and service determinations. This is an evergreen posting for future opportunities; applications remain active and are reviewed as matching positions become available. The role includes managing an ongoing participant panel; evaluating and coordinating care under supervision; prescribing and updating treatment orders with required approval; documenting care in the EMR; ordering and following up on tests; making referrals; and supporting participants and caregivers with education and advance care planning. Care may be delivered in centers, homes, virtually, in skilled nursing facilities, and other settings. The Nurse Practitioner also supports on-call coverage as needed, accurately documents chronic conditions through HCC capture, and works with behavioral health, pharmacy, and other care partners.
