If this opportunity sounds like a great fit for you and you meet most of the essential qualifications we are looking for, we encourage you to apply and provide us more details about why you think you would be a great fit. LWDH is dedicated to ongoing professional development and continuing education opportunities to enhance skillsets and working experience.

The Internal Medicine Clinic Nurse Practitioner (NP) provides high-quality, patient-centered care within the internal medicine clinic. This role involves assessing, diagnosing, and managing acute and chronic conditions, delivering direct patient care, coordinating with internal medicine physicians, interdisciplinary teams, community partners, and contributing to program development and patient education initiatives. The NP plays a critical role in optimizing patient outcomes and enhancing the overall experience of care in an ambulatory setting.

As the NP you will work closely with Internal Medicine physicians to provide longitudinal care for outpatients. This would include providing in person and virtual reassessments, ordering and reviewing investigations, prescriptions (including renewals) and titration of medications for patients with CHF, COPD, Cirrhosis, Diabetes Mellitus and other complex comorbidities. The NP will provide follow up post-discharge from the hospital to ensure continuity of care.

This position offers the opportunity to practice with autonomy in coordinating and managing patient care, including scheduling patient appointments, follow-up visits, and diagnostic testing. In addition, the administrative responsibilities associated with the role will be shared collaboratively between the Nurse Practitioner and Internal Medicine Clinic physicians. A comprehensive 4-week orientation and onboarding period will be provided in collaboration with the physicians, with a gradual introduction to scheduled patients and transition toward an independent Nurse Practitioner-led caseload.
