Urgent Care Nurse Practitioner / Physician Assistant (FQHC)

Nurse Practitioner / Physician Assistant for Urgent Care

FQHC / Community Health Center

If you like the pace and variety of urgent care but want your work to mean more, this is it. I’m working with a well-established nonprofit community health center in Boston that runs a walk-in urgent care clinic for its community. They’re adding an NP or PA to the team.

You’ll be a self-directed provider seeing a wide range of acute cases. You’ll also be part of a full health center, so you can connect patients to primary care, behavioral health, and social services instead of just treating and releasing them.

Why this one stands out

• Real autonomy. You’ll be a self-directed provider with Medical Director support.
• Malpractice coverage. It’s covered through the center’s federal (FTCA) coverage.
• Whole-patient care. You can link patients to on-site primary care, behavioral health, pharmacy, and social services.
• Mission-driven work. You’ll serve a diverse, underserved urban community where no one is turned away for inability to pay.
• Teaching and growth. There’s an accredited advanced practice residency program, chances to precept students, and close ties to a major Boston academic medical center.

What you’ll do

• See walk-in urgent care patients across a wide range of acute needs
• Take detailed histories, perform exams, and order and interpret labs and diagnostics
• Make clinical decisions, refer, and connect patients to community resources
• Link new patients to ongoing primary care at the health center
• Serve as a clinical resource and educator for staff

What you need

• Graduate of an accredited NP or PA program
• NPs: MSN, active Massachusetts RN and NP license with prescriptive authority, and board certification
• PAs: NCCPA certification and an active Massachusetts PA license
• 1+ years of NP or PA experience (urgent care, ER, or primary care ideal)
• Bilingual in Spanish and/or Haitian Creole is preferred
