and desires. PCP Nurse Practitioner JOB SUMMARY Delivering primary
care and continuous healthcare services to PACE participants,
utilizing the knowledge and skills required to assess, plan, and
provide care in alignment with PACE Program standards. Works
closely with the clinical care team to conduct assessments,
reassessments, develop care plans, and deliver comprehensive
primary care. ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES: Provide
high-quality primary care with a strong focus on individualized
evaluation, starting with a comprehensive history and physical
exam, rather than defaulting to broad diagnostic testing panels.
Collaborate closely with the IDT before referring participants to
specialists, ensuring referrals are necessary and that continuity
of care is maintained. Collaborate with the Medical Director to
manage specialist referrals, initiate appropriate treatment prior
to referral when indicated, review specialist notes promptly, and
develop and communicate participant care plans that incorporate
clinical judgment and consult findings to ensure comprehensive
care. Manage and monitor all of your participants' medications,
aiming to exceed expectations in medication reconciliation, and
medication interactions. This can be done in conjunction with the
Medical Director and our collaborating Pharmacist vendor. Stay
actively informed of participant status during hospitalizations and
facility stays, providing appropriate guidance to ensure safe
transitions and care continuity. Assume shared responsibility for
all participants in the center, regardless of individual
assignment, supporting the IDT model of team-based care.
Participate in and contribute to daily IDT meetings, offering
clinical insights and collaborating on participant-centered care
plans. Ensure accurate, timely completion of all participant
assessments and documentation in compliance with policy,
regulatory, and quality standards. Review and respond to labs,
imaging, and consults in a timely manner, incorporating findings
into ongoing care plans and communicating changes with the IDT.
Educate participants and caregivers on self-care strategies,
medication use, and wellness practices, empowering them to
participate in their own care. Use the Emergency Department
judiciously, prioritizing PACE resources unless symptoms are
potentially life-threatening. Accurately document diagnoses with
attention to proper coding practices, supporting risk adjustment
and quality reporting metrics. Provide coverage for the 24/7
on-call rotation, addressing participant needs promptly and
ensuring proper hand-offs and communication. Contribute to
discharge planning, supporting smooth transitions across care
settings. Assist with staff training and mentoring, contributing to
clinical policy development and best practice implementation.
Participate in ongoing performance and quality improvement
initiatives. Demonstrate flexibility by stepping into other roles,
as allowed by licensure and experience, when needed to support the
team. Maintain and report clinical resource needs to the Medical
Director, supporting effective operations. Consistently uphold all
safety, privacy, and compliance standards. EXPERIENCE AND
