Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant

Welcome Health is redefining what primary care for older adults can look like: deeply personal, relationship driven, and grounded in what matters most to each individual. Built on the principles of geriatric medicine and backed by SCAN Group, Welcome Health delivers care that meets patients where they are, including in home, in clinic, and virtual visits.

Welcome Health is led by a team of clinicians and professionals who believe healthcare works best when time, trust, and humanity are at the center. Our providers are empowered to slow down, listen closely, and build lasting relationships with the people they serve. That same mindset applies to our employees - we invest in them by fostering a supportive environment where clinical excellence, collaboration, and worklife balance are truly valued.

Welcome Health is a place where mission and medicine align - and where meaningful work is done every day, with purpose and pride.

*This role is based at our Welcome Health Clinic in Bell, CA*

What We're About
Welcome Health is an innovative medical group delivering primary care to older adults across Greater Los Angeles, Orange County, and Riverside. Our care model is anchored on what matters most to each patient.

Our goal is to help patients stay healthy, independent, and living safely in the community.

We provide comprehensive primary care with a special emphasis on geriatrics. In certain clinic settings, including Bell, care may also include support for patients with cardiovascular conditions as part of an integrated, physician-led model.

Our model recognizes the unique needs of older adults, including preventive care, chronic disease management, and aging-related issues that meaningfully affect quality of life, such as mobility limitations, cognitive impairment, incontinence, and polypharmacy.

What makes our model distinct is that care is primarily clinic-based, with the ability to continue supporting established patients in the home when clinically appropriate. This allows for continuity and more thoughtful, relationship-based care across settings.
