What We're Looking For We are looking for a psychiatric nurse practitioner who is compassionate, practical, flexible, and team-oriented.

A strong candidate can explain clinical decisions in plain language, collaborate well with nursing and facility staff, adjust care when a patient's cognition or medical condition changes, and document visits clearly and promptly. Why Join Serene Resolutions Serene Resolutions is a mobile psychiatric and behavioral-health practice serving seniors and adults in facility settings. We are continuing to grow our psychiatric and therapy services so patients can receive more consistent support and so providers can work together more closely. This is an opportunity to join a growing team, serve a population that needs more accessible mental-health care, and help shape a behavioral-health model that works in real facility environments.
