Neonatal Nurse Practitioner

Opportunities for Full-Time and Part-Time Neonatal Nurse Practitioners at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina - Use ANY STATE License! $120 / Hour Compensation as an Independent Contractor

Humana Military will be seeking five Neonatal Nurse Practitioners (NNP) to provide comprehensive Neonatology Nurse Practitioner services in the Level II NICU, Mother Baby Unit and Labor & Delivery Unit at Naval Medical Center, Camp Lejeune, NC.

The Naval Medical Center Camp Lejeune is located in southeastern North Carolina close to Jacksonville. It is near Oslow Beach and waterways like the New River, to support an active, outdoor lifestyle, while still offering a slower pace of life than larger metro areas. Beyond base recreation, residents can explore local parks, memorials, beaches (Topsail Island, Emerald Isle), golf courses, and museums in the Jacksonville area. Compared to many coastal or military-adjacent areas, housing and everyday expenses around Jacksonville are relatively affordable.
