DISCLOSURES

The specific statements shown in each section of this job description are not intended to be all-inclusive. They represent typical elements and criteria necessary to perform the job successfully. Job responsibilities may be modified or expanded over time, and the company will inform the employee of any such changes.

MULTI-EMPLOYER ROLE

This W-2 hourly Family Nurse Practitioner position includes responsibilities that span across the following three organizations, all under shared leadership:

This role is structured as a 24-hour per week position, with approximately one-third of the total weekly hours (about 8 hours per week) allocated to each organization. While day-to-day supervision and scheduling will be coordinated centrally to support integrated care, each employer will manage its own onboarding, HR, and compliance processes in accordance with applicable laws and organizational policies.
