The Nurse Practitioner will deliver relationship-based primary care to older adults with complex needs, acting as a core member of the Interdisciplinary Team to manage participant panels and coordinate care across various settings. Responsibilities include initiating and evaluating treatments, performing comprehensive assessments, managing diagnostics, and ensuring accurate documentation and specialist coordination.
Care That Follows the Person—Not the Setting
As a Nurse Practitioner in our PACE program, you’ll deliver relationship-based primary care to older adults with complex needs—partnering closely with an Interdisciplinary Team and supporting participants wherever they are (in the center, at home, virtually, or in skilled nursing settings). This role is built for clinicians who want meaningful continuity, whole-person care, and the time and team support to make a lasting difference.
