Job description
Why you’ll want this role:
A set, recurring part-time schedule (typically 2–4 days/week) — predictable hours and real work-life balance.
Benefits eligibility (medical, 401(k), PTO, CME) — uncommon for flexible roles.
Mentorship and a structured ramp into palliative care — you won’t be thrown in alone.
Data-driven coaching and a true interdisciplinary team.
Mission-driven culture shaping how New Jersey delivers palliative care.
What you’ll do:
Deliver inpatient palliative care at Newark Beth Israel Medical Center — assessments, symptom management, goals-of-care conversations, and family meetings.
Partner with the hospital’s care teams and the NJPCS interdisciplinary team.
Complete timely documentation aligned with NJPCS clinical, billing, and quality standards.
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 relevant clinical experience preferred (palliative, hospice, geriatrics, oncology, critical care, or complex chronic care).
Palliative care certification (e.g., ACHPN / CHPN) preferred.
Strong communication, reliability, clinical judgment, and comfort working in interdisciplinary teams.
Compensation & benefits:
Pro-rated from a $130,000–$160,000/year full-time-equivalent base, by scheduled hours.
Full benefits eligibility: medical / dental / vision, 401(k), PTO, CME allowance, and malpractice coverage.
A set, recurring schedule (typically 2–4 days/week) rather than as-needed per diem coverage.
Structured onboarding, workflow guidance, and EMR/documentation support.
