Advanced Practice Provider
About the role
At American Family Care (AFC), we're rewriting what it means to be an Advanced Practice Provider. Our hybrid Urgent Care + Primary Care model gives you the clinical variety that keeps medicine interesting — the fast pace and procedural mix of urgent care, balanced with the continuity and relationships of primary care. No insurance-authorization nightmares. No productivity treadmill that squeezes out the reason you got into medicine. Exceptional patient care, a team that has your back, and a schedule that lets you have a life.
Responsibilities
- Care for patients across the full spectrum of outpatient medicine — treating acute illness and injury one hour, managing a diabetic's A1C the next, and building long-term patient relationships along the way.
- Work collaboratively with physicians, fellow APPs, nurses, medical assistants, and radiology/lab staff to deliver efficient, high-quality care that keeps patients coming back (and referring their friends and family).
- Perform focused and comprehensive health histories, exams, and assessments for both walk-in urgent care patients and established primary care panels.
- Order and interpret labs, imaging (onsite X-ray), EKGs, and point-of-care diagnostics; develop differential diagnoses and treatment plans.
- Manage a broad range of acute presentations — lacerations, sprains and fractures, respiratory and GI illness, minor procedures, workers' comp injuries, and occupational health visits.
- Provide continuity primary care: annual wellness exams, chronic disease management (hypertension, diabetes, asthma, hyperlipidemia), preventive screenings, and vaccinations.
- Recognize and stabilize emergencies including cardiac events, shock, hemorrhage, seizures, anaphylaxis, and acute respiratory distress; coordinate transfers as needed.
- Counsel patients and families on diagnoses, treatment plans, medication adherence, and lifestyle modifications in a way that actually makes sense to them.
- Document clearly and accurately in the EMR (we're committed to charting systems that work with you, not against you).
- Collaborate with your supervising physician and care team to continuously improve patient outcomes and clinic flow.
Requirements
- Active, unrestricted Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant licensure in the state of practice.
- Board certification through ANCC, AANP, or NCCPA.

- 1+ year of urgent care, emergency medicine, family medicine, or internal medicine experience preferred — new graduates with strong clinical rotations and the right attitude are encouraged to apply.
- Comfortable with minor procedures: laceration repair, I&D, splinting, joint injections, foreign body removal.
- Excellent clinical judgment and the ability to work independently while knowing when to pick up the phone.
- A warm, professional bedside manner with patients of all ages (we see everyone from 6 months to 96 years).
- A team player who takes pride in a clean clinic, a supported staff, and a satisfied patient.
