About The Position

Choptank Community Health System (CCHS) is seeking a highly motivated and skilled Nurse Practitioner to work in our School-Based Health Center (SBHC) program. SBHC provides an effective means for students to access comprehensive health care services. SBHCs provide care in a location that meets students where they are: at school. Multiple studies have shown SBHCs to be a cost-effective investment in child and adolescent health by reducing the utilization of emergency rooms, improving health outcomes, and elevating school attendance and graduation.

Maryland’s Eastern Shore enjoys the beautiful Chesapeake Bay setting, characterized by historic towns, meandering creeks, beautiful natural areas, Maryland Blue crabs, oysters, and clams. All this, and we’re still just a short trip to Baltimore, Washington, DC, and Philadelphia. Our Joint Commission Accredited system includes six medical offices, five dental offices, over forty medical and dental providers, behavioral health, school-based wellness, and migrant health programs, for a total of 200 team members. Our mission is to provide access to exceptional, comprehensive, integrated health care for all.
