Family Nurse Practitioner

About MD Hyperbaric

MD Hyperbaric is a growing network of medical clinics bringing physician-supervised hyperbaric oxygen therapy to markets across the Northeast. Our Staten Island location is focused on providing access to HBOT for various patient populations: individuals recovering from radiation-related tissue injuries, patients experiencing sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSHL), and more. We partner with leading private practices and health systems to ensure patients have access to evidence-based HBOT when they need it most.

The Role

As our on-site Nurse Practitioner, you will be the local clinical oversight for every HBOT session at the Staten Island location. You will evaluate patients, supervise chamber sessions, document clinical progress, and coordinate directly with referring physicians. This is a hands-on, patient-facing role - not a consulting or administrative position. You will work closely with the MD Hyperbaric Medical Directors and collaborating physicians, and will be the primary clinical presence in the facility.

This role is ideal for an NP who wants clinical ownership, is interested in a specialized and growing field, and thrives in an environment where they are building relationships around a proven therapy.

Requirements

• Conduct initial patient evaluations for HBOT appropriateness - including review of health history, vitals, and referring physician notes
• Supervise all HBOT sessions onsite; maintain physical presence in the facility throughout chamber operation
• Document each session with a signed clinical progress note
• Provide clinical documentation and supporting letters for insurance approval
• Communicate with referring radiation oncologists, ENTs, and PCPs on patient progress
• Monitor patients for HBOT-related adverse effects and respond appropriately
• Maintain and support listed safety protocols
• Participate in quality assurance and clinical protocol development as the program grows
• Support collaborative referral relationships with local practices
