Looking for Your Next Clinical Specialty?

You don’t need prior interventional pain management experience to be considered.

We’re looking for a strong NP or PA-C who is interested in developing expertise in the specialty.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys learning, asks good questions, and wants to continue growing clinically. You’ll work alongside experienced pain management physicians while developing your knowledge, skills, and confidence in interventional pain management.

Position Summary

The Nurse Practitioner (NP) or Physician Assistant-Certified (PA-C) provides comprehensive, patient-centered care in an interventional pain management setting.

You’ll work closely with pain management physicians and clinical staff to evaluate patients, develop treatment plans, provide education, and coordinate care. We’re looking for someone with strong clinical fundamentals who is motivated to learn, receptive to feedback, and interested in developing expertise within the specialty.

What You’LL Do

  • Perform detailed patient evaluations, including medical histories, physical examinations, and functional assessments
  • Evaluate and manage patients in accordance with established pain management protocols
  • Develop, implement, and monitor individualized treatment plans in collaboration with the physician team and consistent with scope of practice and established clinical protocols
  • Order, review, and interpret diagnostic imaging, laboratory tests, and other relevant studies
  • Prescribe and manage medications as authorized by licensure, scope of practice, applicable law, and practice protocols
  • Provide pre-procedure and post-procedure evaluations and patient education
  • Educate patients and families about conditions, treatment options, procedures, risks, benefits, and expected outcomes
  • Monitor patient progress and response to treatment
  • Document patient encounters and treatment plans accurately and timely in the electronic medical record
  • Collaborate with physicians, nurses, medical assistants, and other members of the care team
  • Follow applicable pain management compliance standards, quality measures, infection-control policies, and patient-safety practices
  • Respond appropriately and effectively in urgent or emergent clinical situations
  • Participate in clinical meetings and quality-improvement initiatives as assigned

What We’RE Looking For

  • Is organized and comfortable working in a busy outpatient environment
  • Takes documentation, follow-through, and patient safety seriously
  • Is willing to continue learning as clinical knowledge and responsibilities grow
  • Is comfortable traveling between practice locations as needed

Prior pain management experience is a plus, but it is not required for the right candidate.

Qualifications

  • Graduate of an accredited Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant program
  • Current national certification as a Nurse Practitioner or PA-C
  • Current, active, unrestricted Florida APRN or Physician Assistant license, or eligibility to obtain appropriate Florida licensure before employment
  • BLS and/or CPR certification; ACLS preferred
  • Comfortable working with electronic medical records and clinical documentation systems
  • Working knowledge of standard clinical software applications

Areas of Growth May Include

  • Spine and musculoskeletal conditions
  • Neurologic conditions related to pain
  • Diagnostic imaging and clinical correlation
  • Interventional pain management procedures
  • Conservative treatment approaches
  • Medication management and opioid stewardship
  • Pre- and post-procedure patient management
  • Functional assessment and treatment response
  • Current and emerging interventional pain management techniques and technologies

The Person Who Will Thrive Here

You do need to be engaged, dependable, clinically thoughtful, and ready to learn.

This is a great opportunity for an NP or PA who wants to develop a specialty, work closely with an experienced clinical team, and continue building their skills and confidence as a provider.
