Permanent Wound Care Job in Alexandria, Louisiana

Wound Care Specialist - Nurse Practitioner, Physician Assistant, MD/DO - Monroe & Alexandria, Louisiana

If the idea of working 24/7 with high-stress or very sick patients in a hospital or office (a high malpractice risk associated with relatively low pay) no longer excites you, this may be the job for you. Our growing nursing home wound care practice is in need of MD/DO/ARNP/PA.

Flexible work hours, no night or weekend calls, great staff to work with, well compensated.

  • Staff Physicians supervise Physician Assistants / Nurse Practitioners
  • Educate personnel. Experience is helpful but not required

  • It takes about a month to learn the basics, 3 months to start to feel comfortable, 1 year to know wound care.
  • This is a day job, Monday through Friday. No nights or weekends. But we do expect you to be available by cell phone 24/7.
  • We group the facilities by location and assign them to a physician/ARNP. The physician/ARNP visits these facilities weekly and manages the care of the patient's wounds.
