Job Description
Full-time Nurse Practitioners Needed at Elderly Care & Rehab Clinic in Buffalo, NY
We provide effective and equitable value-based primary care to adults on Medicare to keep them happy, healthy, and out of the hospital. Our Nurse Practitioners see patients independently and collaborate with physicians, depending on the patient's specific situation, provide longitudinal care, and build meaningful patient relationships; this creates trust and helps our patients understand and feel connected to their care plan.
You will practice in our outpatient practices on a collaborative care team composed of a physician, nurse practitioner or physician assistant, medical assistants, a dedicated medical scribe, and support from registered nurses and care managers. We partner with a network of elite specialists and hospitals for specialty and acute care. As such, our healthcare providers can focus on care within the clinic: primary care, care coordination, and population health.
We provide personalized primary care for older adults on Medicare, with the goal of keeping patients healthy and living life to the fullest. Our innovative care model is centered right in our patient's communities and focused on the quality of care over the volume of services. We're an organization on the move!
