About the Position

Family Nurse Practitioner needed for a brand-new, modern clinic facility on the Oregon coast. This is a unique opportunity to join a highly collaborative provider team and dedicated support staff focused on expanding access to high-quality, patient-centered care in an underserved rural community.

The facility itself is newly developed, thoughtfully designed, and equipped with modern resources to support efficient, high-quality care delivery.
