We have full and part-time positions for physicians with a specialty in psychiatry.
Applicants will have previous experience with the geriatric population, and will be
familiar with state and federal regulations affecting psychotropic medication usage within
the nursing home setting.
We require verification of licensure as an M.D. or D.O. in your state, with a
specialty in psychiatry, and that you meet qualifications for credentialing with Medicare,
Medicaid and other third-party insurance payers.
Our
psychiatrists are referred patients for medication consultations, and do follow-up med
management independently, or through collaboration with the patient’s primary care
physician. We process the referrals in our home office, and after completing the necessary
paperwork regarding funding, consents, and primary care physician orders, our Referral
Coordinator sends you the authorization to see the patient. |
Nurse Practitioners ("NP")
and Clinical Nurse Specialists ("CNS")
|
|
NP’s and CNS’s are ideally suited to working in the long term care
environment. With the growing need for medication management with the nursing home
population, our clinical services have rapidly expanded to meet this need, bringing the
NP’s and CNS’s expertise to this setting right alongside our psychiatrists. |
The NP or CNS candidate must:
- Be a registered professional nurse, currently licensed in
your state.
- Satisfy the applicable requirements for qualification of
NP’s or CNS’s in your state.
- Meet at least one of the following:
|
|
|
 |
Be currently certified as a psychiatric mental health
NP or CNS by the ANCC (a subsidiary of the ANA). |
|
|
Have satisfactorily completed a
formal program of at least 1 year that prepares RN’s to perform an expanded role in
the delivery of primary care, that awards a degree, diploma or certification of the
program. |
|
Like our psychiatrists, our NP’s and CNS’s are
referred patients for medication consultations, and do follow-up med management
independently, or through collaboration with the patient’s primary care physician.
These services are performed in collaboration with a M.D. or D.O. We process the referrals
in our home office, and after completing the necessary paperwork regarding funding,
consents, and primary care physician orders, our Referral Coordinator sends you the
authorization to see the patient. |
