Nurse Practitioner - Primary Care & Mental Health

If you’re looking for an NP role where you can use the full breadth of your clinical judgment —not simply move through a repetitive appointment list—this opportunity offers something different.

HealthOPM is recruiting a Nurse Practitioner for a community-focused primary care role in Oshawa. You’ll provide autonomous care to individuals and families across the lifespan, addressing the intersection of physical health, chronic disease, mental health and the social factors that influence wellbeing .

Your work extends beyond the clinic when needed, giving you the opportunity to build continuity with patients and connect them to the care, resources and supports that can make a meaningful difference.

Your Practice

Assess, diagnose, prescribe and manage care independently within your NP scope, while having physicians, specialists and allied health professionals around you for collaboration.

• Manage scheduled and urgent visits, chronic and complex health concerns, diagnostics, medications, treatment and follow-up.

• Provide counselling, health education, disease prevention and practical strategies that help patients take a more active role in their health.

• Deliver care in the clinic and community, coordinating with healthcare providers and community services when patients need support beyond a traditional appointment.

This isn’t a narrowly defined NP position. You’ll be expected to think critically, make clinical decisions and bring together the physical, psychological, social and environmental pieces of a patient’s health. That breadth is directly reflected in the underlying role.

The Opportunity

You’ll have a consistent weekday schedule while practising across primary care, chronic disease management, prevention and mental-health-informed care—and working with a team that recognizes the value an experienced Nurse Practitioner brings to patient care.
