Role Description:
Oak Street Health Nurse Practitioners are an integral member of our
Care Teams, which also include Physicians, Registered Nurses,
Medical Assistants, Clinical Informatics Specialists,
Phlebotomists, and Care Managers. NPs see patients independently
and alongside the doctors, depending upon the patient's specific
situation. Nurse Practitioners provide longitudinal care and build
meaningful patient relationships; this creates trust and helps our
patient understand and feel connected to their care plan.
Together this team is responsible for providing and coordinating
care for an intimate panel of patients in our neighborhoods. While
the typical primary care panel in the U.S. is around 2,500 patients
for a single physician, our panels at Oak Street Health are around
500-750 for a team. This creates an opportunity to spend more time
with patients, build deeper relationships, and to better
execute/coordinate care plans.
Nurse Practitioners practice exclusively in our outpatient
practices. We partner with a network of elite specialists and
hospitals for specialty and acute care. As such, our NPs, with our
doctors, focus exclusively on care within the clinic: primary care,
care coordination, and population health.
Core Responsibilities:
Provision of exceptional primary care
Office visits for routine and acute issues
Annual wellness visits and health risk assessments, which require a
holistic view of health and a focus on thoughtful, accurate, and
specific documentation
Care coordination with other providers, specialists, testing
facilities, agencies
Population health leadership, in coordination with the Care
Team
Phone triage and outreach
Patient education
