About The Position

Greater Good Health is a fast-growing organization delivering care to older adults in access starved communities. Our innovative model is led by Nurse Practitioners and focused on outcomes, not volume—meaning we prioritize quality over quantity, spend more time with our patients, and are accountable for their health and well-being. Whether through our own senior-focused primary care clinics or our suite of integrated clinical solutions for health plans and provider groups, we are making value-based care more accessible and more effective. We help reduce avoidable healthcare costs, improve clinical outcomes, and create a best-in-class patient experience. If you're passionate about transforming healthcare and delivering meaningful care to those who need it most, Greater Good Health offers a purpose-driven, collaborative, and supportive environment where your work can make a lasting impact. Are you a compassionate mission-driven Nurse Practitioner looking to make a meaningful impact on the lives of complex medical patients? As a Nurse Practitioner at GGH, you'll bring hope and healing to patients with complex medical needs. In this full time role, you'll be a vital member of an interdisciplinary team, transforming lives and empowering primary care physicians to deliver exceptional care to those who need it most. This role requires a multifaceted approach, encompassing all aspects of care delivery. Comprehensive geriatric assessments may be conducted in-office, via telemedicine, or through on-site visits at senior facilities, patient homes, dialysis centers, and other appropriate locations. Close collaboration with primary care physicians is a must to avoid fragmented care. The scope of practice includes managing quality measures, performing accurate risk assessments, recommending adjustments to longitudinal care, providing care for non-life or limb threatening urgent concerns, facilitating advanced care planning, and other key actions while collaborating with an interdisciplinary team to align care with patient health goals. The above actions, combined with preventive and timely patient care, afford emergency department and hospital admission avoidance which is a known factor in decreasing complications while maintaining a higher quality of life in this subset of patients.
