Provide high-touch palliative care for people facing serious illness across SNF, home, and community settings — with a structured ramp into palliative care, physician/APP backup, and a team that does not leave you to figure it out alone.
Setting · License: Outpatient – SNF & community, Ocean County NJ · New Jersey NP or PA license required
About us & the role:
Mission to deliver palliative care without walls across New Jersey, partnering with skilled nursing facilities, home-based providers, and leading health systems. We are hiring a Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant to provide outpatient and SNF-based palliative care across Ocean County for patients living with serious illness. Palliative care experience is helpful but not required — clinicians with strong communication and serious-illness judgment from oncology, critical care, hospital medicine, geriatrics, SNF/LTC, primary care, or home-based care should consider this role.
Why you’ll want this role:
A structured ramp into palliative care: pair with experienced specialists and grow through mentorship, clinical backup, and data-guided coaching.
A real interdisciplinary team: physicians, APPs, social work, care coordination, and operational support.
Clear workflows and quality expectations — not a sink-or-swim field role.
Primarily a Monday–Friday schedule with flexibility to swap workdays.
28 PTO days in year one and a $0/month employee-only medical option.
Academic pathways, CME up to $1,000/year, and tuition reimbursement up to $2,000.
What you’ll do:
Perform at the top of your license, performing best practice, holistic, patient-centered, evidence-based interdisciplinary palliative medicine.
Provide palliative care consultations and follow-up visits across skilled nursing settings, including short-stay subacute/rehab patients with recent hospitalizations, high symptom burden, or complex goals-of-care needs, as well as ongoing management of long-term care residents.
Deliver palliative assessments and follow-up visits in SNFs and community settings.
Manage complex symptoms for patients with advanced illness and chronic disease.
Lead goals-of-care and advance care planning conversations with patients and families, coordinating with partner home health and/or hospice agencies if and when appropriate.
Partner with the interdisciplinary team and facility staff, primary care, and hospice.
Support transition planning across the SNF stay – from admission after hospitalization through discharge home, return to long-term care, rehospitalization decisions, hospice transition, or other next-site-of-care planning.
Complete timely documentation aligned with clinical, billing, and quality standards.
Travel locally within Ocean County, with mileage reimbursement and clinical/EMR support provided.
What you bring:
Active New Jersey Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant license and national board certification.
DEA + CDS registration, or ability to obtain by start date.
2+ years of clinical experience preferred; palliative care experience helpful, and high-potential APPs from relevant serious-illness settings considered.
Palliative care certification (e.g., ACHPN / CHPN) preferred.
Strong communication, clinical judgment, compassion, and comfort working on interdisciplinary teams.
