OB Family Medicine Registered Nurse, High Point (.6 FTE)

About the role

The OB Family Medicine Registered Nurse works in partnership and shared accountability within an interdisciplinary care team to achieve Neighborcare’s Mission, Guiding Principles, and goals. The RN supports patients across the lifespan by promoting health, providing patient education, responding to urgent and emerging clinical needs, and performing nursing care and procedures within scope, training, and competency. RNs build trusting relationships with patients and collaborate with care team members to meet patient needs across Neighborcare Health settings and services. The RN applies the nursing process to assess, diagnose, plan, implement, and evaluate nursing care in an outpatient and community-based care environment.

Since 1968, Neighborcare Health has been removing barriers to health care for our neighbors. We believe everyone deserves a place to call their health care home, where a team of medical, dental and mental health professionals work in collaboration with each patient to develop a personal health improvement plan. We are one of the largest providers of primary medical, dental and behavioral health care services in the Seattle area serving low-income and uninsured families and individuals, seniors on fixed incomes, immigrants, and people experiencing homelessness. Each year we care for nearly 60,000 patients at our nearly 30 non-profit medical, dental and school-based clinics. We ask everyone to pay what they can, but no one is turned away due to inability to pay. Our clinics are located in neighborhoods where health disparities are the greatest, and our care teams, who speak over 55 languages and dialects, are as diverse as our patients. No matter who you are, or where you come from, regardless of your insurance, income or immigration status, you are welcome at Neighborcare Health.
