Position SummaryWe are seeking a Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant to deliver high-quality, in-person clinical care in skilled nursing and post-acute care facilities across Mesa, Gilbert, and Chandler, AZ. This part-time weekend role is ideal for providers looking for flexibility, clinical autonomy, and the opportunity to make a direct impact on patient outcomes in long-term care settings.
As an independent contractor, you’ll provide essential weekend coverage that supports continuity of care and reduces unnecessary hospitalizations.

- Preferred: 1–2 years of experience in skilled nursing or post-acute care
- Strong EMR proficiency and familiarity with post-acute documentation workflows
- Excellent clinical judgment and communication skills
- Comfortable working independently within defined clinical parameters
Why This Role Stands Out
- Weekend-only schedule – no weekday, evening, or on-call obligations
- Competitive hourly rate with consistent part-time hours
- Autonomous practice with the support of a multidisciplinary care network
- Flexible, supplemental opportunity for experienced providers
- Meaningful work improving care outcomes in high-need populations
