Physician Assistant

Sadler Health Center Co•Carlisle, PA

10d•Onsite

About The Position

Sadler Health Center is looking for a Physician Assistant who wants the full breadth of family medicine back. Not a narrow slice of it. Here you will care for newborns, teenagers, working adults, and elders — often from the same family, sometimes on the same afternoon — and you will keep caring for them for years. As a Federally Qualified Health Center, we serve patients regardless of insurance status or ability to pay. That means your panel will include people managing multiple chronic conditions alongside real social complexity: uncontrolled diabetes and hypertension, anxiety and depression, ADD/ADHD, substance use, housing and food insecurity. It is demanding work. It is also the work that changes outcomes, and you will not be doing it alone — behavioral health, case management, pharmacy, and community health workers are embedded on your team and a referral away, not a fax away.

Requirements

Graduate of an ARC-PA (AMA-approved) Physician Assistant program; master's-level degree.
Minimum of two (2) years of post-graduate experience as a Physician Assistant in primary care.
Current, valid Physician Assistant license issued by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Current certification by the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants (NCCPA).
Ability to obtain a valid DEA Controlled Substance Registration Certificate prior to start date
Sound clinical judgment, strong written and verbal communication, and the ability to work independently in a fast-moving clinic.
Proficiency with electronic medical records and Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook).

Nice To Haves

Experience in a community health center, FQHC, or public health clinic setting.

Responsibilities

Provide comprehensive primary and family care to patients of all ages, in accordance with Pennsylvania licensure and your professional scope of practice.

Order, interpret, and integrate laboratory and diagnostic results into sound assessments and treatment plans.
Coordinate transitions of care as patients move between inpatient, emergency, and community-based settings.
Drive preventive care: routine screening, immunizations, well visits, and connection to community resources for the patient and their family.
