APPLY NOW


Description

Lewiston, Maine: We invite a compassionate PSYCHIATRIC NURSE PRACTITIONER or PHYSICIAN ASSISTANT to join a big PEDIATRICS practice in Maine’s second largest city, just 40 minutes from Portland. This highly respected private group dominates the pediatric market in this region – providing care for infants through teens and young adults. They have a busy outpatient practice with more than a dozen providers in their kid-friendly standalone building.

The group has one Physician Assistant and one Physician currently providing mental health care services for their patients on a full time basis, and other providers offering some mental health care as time/scheduling permits. Responding to a decrease in other resources, they are ready to add another practitioner to meet community needs. In this setting, you will help support patients with childhood behavioral issues, along with adolescents and young adults who need care in areas such as depression, anxiety, and other mental health concerns. This is an important and rewarding outpatient role working with young patients and their families, providing assessments, diagnostics and treatment plans, along with counseling and medication management.

Your schedule will run from Tues-Fri, 8am-5pm weekly. This is an Equal Opportunity Employer. Enjoy practicing in a spacious, modern facility with fully integrated EMR and an experienced support team. Join a community where caring for young people will have a measurable and rewarding impact.

You will earn a competitive salary plus a benefits package that includes paid liability insurance, paid license costs, health, dental, and vision insurance, plenty of earned time plus paid holidays, paid leave plus a budget for your CME, participation in a 401k, and more.

Maine is the #2 State for Living and Working, and the #2 Safest State in the USA. Lewiston and its “across the river” neighbor (Auburn) are home to 120,000 residents in Maine’s Lakes and Mountains region. This diverse, bustling community offers a wide range of dining options, from chain restaurants to unique homegrown eateries, diners, ethnic restaurants and wonderful seafood places. Shopping is offered in specialty boutiques, big-box stores and malls. The local arts scene includes a popular live-stage community and several flavors of easily accessible live music, plus multi-screen movie theaters and more. Bates College in Lewiston is a “Best Liberal Arts College” that attracts students from nearly every state and over 60 countries.

Maine’s brilliant 4-season climate and varied geography support many types of recreation. Enjoy local trails for hiking and biking, and lakes and streams for casual fishing, kayaking and sailing. Golf is popular, with over a dozen nearby courses. Lewiston is a short drive from Maine's scenic ski resorts. Other winter sports include cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, ice fishing and snowshoeing. Every August, Lewiston hosts a family-friendly Balloon Festival beside the famous Androscoggin River waterfalls.

Residential choices are vast, as commuting is easy for this outpatient position. Your options include homes in Lewiston and its suburbs, greater Portland, and communities around the capital of Augusta too. You could live on a lake, river or pond, or in a country setting with your own acreage just minutes away. You will find many welcoming neighborhoods with very strong public and private schools.

Portland is an easy drive via freeway. One of the most desirable cities in New England, this harbor town has a buzzing social scene centered in the popular Old Port district. With literally hundreds of restaurants, Portland is a renown “foodie” city, winning multiple awards for quality eateries and the diversity of their offerings. The International Jetport is convenient and serves several major and discount airlines. Portland hosts a trio of semipro sports teams, numerous museums, the state’s largest mall, a symphony orchestra, and a busy harbor with ferry service to several nearby islands.
