Job Description

FIND Healthcareers is a healthcare recruitment firm led by professionals who operate within the system — not outside of it. We partner with growing healthcare organizations across the U.S. to build clinical, operational, and leadership teams that improve how care is delivered.

We recruit across the full spectrum of healthcare talent — from Licensed Practical Nurses and Physicians to practice managers and operational leaders. Whether through direct hire, contract, or temp-to-hire placements, we connect candidates with environments where they can perform and organizations with people who actually move the needle.

Backed by strong relationships across healthcare networks and training programs, we don’t just fill roles — we align talent with real-world operational needs.

About the Client

Our client is a growing, US-based healthcare network of clinicians, specialists, and support teams dedicated to providing quality medical care to residents of senior living communities, assisted and independent living facilities, group homes, and memory care communities.

As the organization continues to expand its services and specialties, including telehealth, it is working toward a comprehensive, 360-degree care model focused on accessible, coordinated, and patient-centered care.

  • Educate patients and families on pain management, self-care, and lifestyle modifications.
  • Maintain accurate patient records and treatment plans in the electronic health record (EHR) system.

Nurse Practitioner (NP): Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) with NP training and an active, unrestricted Arizona NP license and applicable certification.
