Henry Ford Health partners with millions of people on their health journey, across Michigan and around the world.

We offer a full continuum of services from primary and preventative care to complex and specialty care, health insurance, a full suite of home health offerings, virtual care, pharmacy, eye care and other health care retail.

With former Ascension southeast Michigan and Flint region locations now part of our team, Henry Ford's care is available in 13 hospitals and hundreds of ambulatory care locations.

Job Description

  • Ready to make a real impact? Here's what you'll be doing in this exciting role:
  • See patients of all ages – from newborns to our most seasoned patients – and tackle whatever health challenges walk through the door
  • Be the acute care hero – manage urgent health issues across all age groups with skill and confidence

Stabilize and coordinate – work your magic on uncontrolled chronic conditions to get patients stable, then connect them with their primary care team for ongoing management

Flex your preventative care muscles – jump on opportunities to help patients stay healthy and prevent future problems

Fine-tune chronic care management – make thoughtful adjustments to treatment plans as needed, always keeping the patient's best outcome in mind

Own your patient load – expect to see 30-40 patients per day once you hit full capacity (don't worry—you'll have 3-6 months to ramp up!)

Be a team player – cover at our Same Day Clinic locations as needed. You'll have a primary home base at either 3235 E Michigan Ave, Jackson, MI 49202 or 1401 W North St, Jackson, MI 49202, where you'll spend most of your time, with flexibility to support our other clinic locations

Work at the top of your license – enjoy high-level autonomy with the support and collaboration of an incredible team of APPs and physicians

Schedule: Full-time, 40 hours per week with no weekend shifts. Optional on-call weeks available with extra work shift pay for those who want to expand their impact!
