Telemedicine APP (NP/PA) – SNF & Post-Acute Care

Telemedicine Advanced Practice Provider (NP/PA) – Skilled Nursing & Post-Acute Care Position Overview We are building a collaborative team of Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants passionate about delivering high-quality overnight care to skilled nursing and post-acute patients through telemedicine. This role is ideal for clinicians who enjoy acute clinical decision-making, autonomy, and meaningful collaboration with bedside nursing teams while helping support safe treat-in-place care and appropriate escalation when needed. Providers care for a geriatric and post-acute population with varying degrees of illness severity, supported by structured protocols, ongoing mentorship, and a team-oriented telemedicine environment designed to help clinicians grow in confidence and independence over time. Whether you are an experienced clinician or a motivated new provider interested in post-acute medicine, we are committed to creating a supportive onboarding and training experience that helps providers succeed in telemedicine care.
