Life:

This is a role for an FNP or AGNP who wants meaningful patient relationships, clinical autonomy, and the ability to take ownership of a practice. You will provide primary care to older adults living in dementia care, assisted living, and independent living communities across Bullhead City. Your day centers on the full spectrum of geriatric primary care — chronic disease management, preventive care, acute concerns, medication review, and follow-up visits. Many patients are medically complex, so the work rewards strong clinical judgment, patience, and the ability to balance several conditions at once while keeping quality of life and independence at the center of every plan. You will practice with a high level of independence while keeping physician support within reach. You will also work closely with facility staff, nurses, therapists, specialists, patients, and families to coordinate treatment and catch changes in a patient's condition before they turn into larger problems. For the right provider, this offers the independence and ownership of building your own patient panel and practice style, without the administrative burden of owning a private practice.

Why This Role Stands Out:

Meaningful continuity: build lasting relationships with older adults and their families instead of seeing patients for isolated episodes High clinical autonomy: make decisions and manage your patient panel with minimal micromanagement Flexible schedule: structure your workday with greater flexibility than most traditional clinic-based roles Complex, engaging medicine: a diverse geriatric population that will challenge and sharpen your clinical judgment Physician support without overmanagement: practice independently while collaboration and mentorship stay available when you want them Room to grow: take ownership of your practice and develop professionally as the patient population and the organization grow

What We're Looking For:

A provider with a genuine interest in caring for older adults Strong clinical judgment and comfort managing medically complex patients An independent, accountable approach to patient care Excellent communication with patients, families, facilities, and clinical teams A thoughtful, patient-centered approach to treatment decisions Someone who values autonomy and still recognizes when collaboration is the right call

Job Duties & Responsibilities:

Provide comprehensive primary care to residents of dementia care, assisted living, and independent living communities Evaluate and manage chronic disease, acute medical concerns, and medically complex geriatric conditions Conduct preventive care, routine assessments, and follow-up visits Develop individualized treatment plans focused on health, function, independence, and quality of life Manage medications and identify opportunities to reduce unnecessary polypharmacy when clinically appropriate Monitor changes in patient condition and adjust treatment plans accordingly Collaborate with physicians, nurses, therapists, specialists, facility staff, patients, and families Coordinate patient treatment across facilities, specialists, hospitals, and other clinical settings Educate patients and families on diagnoses, medications, treatment plans, and goals of care Maintain accurate, complete, and timely documentation in the electronic medical record Exercise independent clinical judgment and seek physician collaboration when appropriate

Required Qualifications:

Licensed Nurse Practitioner with FNP or AGNP preparation and eligibility to practice in AZ DEA registration, or the ability to obtain one Strong clinical decision-making and critical-thinking skills Excellent interpersonal and communication skills Ability to practice both independently and collaboratively Reliable transportation for local travel between facilities

Preferred Background:

Two or more years of experience caring for geriatric patients Experience in assisted living, dementia care, long-term care, internal medicine, family practice, hospice, or palliative medicine Experience managing medically complex older adults Familiarity with medication management and treatment coordination in senior living settings New graduates are encouraged to apply. Bring a genuine passion for geriatrics, a strong work ethic, eagerness to learn, and a commitment to exceptional patient care This Role Is Likely a Fit If You… Have a genuine interest in serving older adults and improving their quality of life Enjoy developing long-term relationships with patients and families Want meaningful autonomy and ownership of your patient panel Are comfortable making independent clinical decisions Would rather solve complex clinical problems than follow a highly standardized workflow Are dependable, organized, compassionate, and accountable for your patients This Role May Not Be a Fit If You… Prefer a traditional clinic environment where patients come to a single location Are uncomfortable traveling locally between senior living communities Prefer close day-to-day supervision or a highly structured clinical workflow Are not comfortable managing patients with multiple chronic conditions and complex medication regimens Prefer episodic visits over ongoing relationships with patients and families

Why Join Us:

This role offers the chance to practice geriatric medicine in a way that combines autonomy, continuity, flexibility, and real patient impact. You will have the freedom to take ownership of your patient panel while keeping physician collaboration and clinical support available whenever you need it.
