Job Description

Empower Recovery. Lead with Care. Redefine Post-Acute Medicine.

Full time 5 days / 40 hr. per week.

Are you a clinician who believes that the transition from hospital to home is the most critical window in a patient’s journey? Do you thrive in environments where you can build deep relationships, lead interdisciplinary teams, and practice medicine at the highest level of your license?

Eterna Primary Care is looking for a Medical Practitioner (NP/PA) who is passionate about geriatric and post-acute care to join our mission-driven team.

The Perks: Why You’ll Love Eterna Primary Care

Work in a highly collaborative, team-based environment with nursing staff, therapists, and facility leadership focused on patient-centered care.

Partner closely with physicians and consultant pharmacists, gaining exposure to interdisciplinary clinical decision-making.

Receive ongoing mentorship from experienced physician leaders to support your clinical and professional growth.

  • Be part of a culture that values collaboration, learning, and continuous improvement in patient outcomes.

  • Competitive Pay: Earn a high-impact salary with compensation up to $170K.
  • Comprehensive Benefits: An excellent package, including CME reimbursement to keep your skills sharp.
  • True Autonomy: Enjoy the independence to make clinical decisions and the flexibility to manage your schedule.

The Role: Why This Matters

At Eterna Primary Care, you aren’t just "rounding", you are the primary medical architect for patients in skilled nursing and assisted living facilities. You will bridge the gap between acute crisis and long-term wellness, ensuring that every patient receives high-quality, patient-centered care designed to reduce hospital readmissions and improve quality of life.

Ready to Make a Difference?

If you are ready to move away from the "revolving door" of acute care and into a role where you can truly manage a patient’s path to recovery, apply today!

Eterna Primary Care is an equal opportunity employer committed to a diverse and inclusive healthcare environment.

Responsibilities

What You’ll Do

Be the Clinical Lead: Perform comprehensive assessments and manage acute and chronic conditions in complex, medically fragile populations.

Drive Innovation: Utilize telehealth and evidence-based strategies to enhance patient outcomes and improve the overall care experience.

Collaborate & Connect: Act as the vital liaison between hospitals, families, and facility leadership. You’ll be the "go-to" expert for nursing staff and therapy teams.

Focus on Value: Champion quality metrics and cost-effective medicine that prioritizes the patient’s goals over everything else.

Qualifications

What You Bring to the Team

The Credentials: A Master’s or Doctorate from an accredited program (NP or PA) with a current state license, Board Certification, and an active DEA.

The Experience: A background in Geriatrics, Post-Acute, or SNF settings is strongly preferred. You understand the unique rhythm of the post-acute environment.
