Nurse Practitioner

Nurse Practitioner / Physician Assistant

Geriatric Primary Care – Hybrid Practice Model

Location: Orland Park, IL

The Role

This is a hybrid clinical position designed for an NP or PA who wants to practice at the top of their training in a supportive, collaborative environment.

You will:

• Co-manage a defined panel of geriatric patients
• Provide outpatient primary care visits in a geriatric-focused clinic
• Conduct rounds in Assisted Living and Independent Living communities
• Participate in Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) care alongside the physician
• Perform post-hospital / post-SNF transitional care follow-ups
• Engage in medication reconciliation, goals-of-care discussions, complex care planning, and comprehensive Annual Wellness Visits
• Collaborate with facility staff, families, and interdisciplinary teams

You will be integrated into the physician’s practice — not functioning independently without support.

What Makes This Role Unique

Direct Mentorship

You will work closely with a fellowship-trained geriatrician who enjoys teaching and case discussion. Expect active collaboration, real-time feedback, and meaningful clinical development.

True Continuity Model

Unlike siloed roles, you will see patients:

• In clinic
• In assisted/independent living
• In skilled nursing
• After hospital discharge

This provides rare exposure to the full arc of geriatric care.

Complex Medicine

You will manage:

• Polypharmacy
• Frailty syndromes
• Dementia care
• High-utilizer patients
• Advanced care planning
• Chronic disease optimization

If you enjoy nuanced, thinking medicine, this is for you.

For those interested, a long-term leadership trajectory may include involvement in clinic management, clinical operations strategy, program expansion, and interdisciplinary team development,  allowing you to grow not just as a clinician, but as a clinical leader in geriatric care.

• Comfortable in multiple care settings
