Job description

UltaCare Medical has an immediate opening for part-time Geri-psych Nurse Practitioner.

  • Maintain a customer-oriented approach to meeting patient needs in an expedient manner, involving others in the plan of care as appropriate.
  • Maintain confidentiality and uphold the highest level of professionalism.
  • Communicate at all levels of organization and work well within a team environment.
