Prism Health is the only nonprofit LGBTQIA+ health center providing comprehensive primary care, behavioral healthcare, and pharmacy services in the Pacific Northwest (Oregon, Washington, and Idaho). Since opening its doors in 2017, Prism Health has become a model for culturally specific care and now serves over 1,500 patients with a wide range of services, from day-to-day primary care and pharmacy needs to targeted services like gender-affirming care and specialized population health screenings.

Prism Health and Cascade AIDS Project are excited to announce that we are hiring a skilled and compassionate Advanced Practice Provider (APPs).

This is a full-time role working in our Portland clinic on SE Belmont Ave or N. Morris St, adjacent to Legacy Emmanuel Hospital. Clinic and work hours are Monday to Friday, 8 am to 5 pm. A full-time schedule includes 32 hours of direct patient care and 8 hours of admin time each week. Most practitioners work 4 days per week in the clinic, taking their admin time as a work from home day.

Starting pay is $150,354.84 to $159,376.13/year, which is equivalent to $72.28 to $76.62/hour.

Who You Are
  • You have current licensure as a Family Nurse Practitioner or Physician Associate with prescriptive authority.

  • Ideally, you have experience with developing clinic policies and practices. When a policy or practice isn't working, you are the person on your team who ensures that it is updated.
  • You are committed to advancing diversity, equity and inclusion at work. You already understand that this is an essential aspect of your clinical practice.
  • You are self-aware and a good listener. You are an expert at centering others, and not just in the treatment room

  • Conduct comprehensive patient assessments including physical exam, medical assessment, medication reconciliation, lab surveillance including HIV/STI testing and social needs assessment.
  • Provide gender affirming care including prescribing hormone therapy.
  • Provide patient education (including disease management, health coaching, preventive care and medication instructions) in a compelling and compassionate manner, to maximize compliance.
  • Work as a medical team with other Advanced Practice Providers, RNs, CMAs and Phlebotomists. At Prism Health, we work as a team, and you aren't on your own.
  • Prescribe pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic therapies, including controlled substances.
  • Become a member of the broader LGBTQ+ and HIV medical community in Portland with the aim of enhancing your practice and increasing patient access to services outside Prism.
