Details:

 

This is an excellent opportunity for an advanced practice provider (APP) to join a collaborative and supportive APP/physician practice at the UW Health Cancer Center at ProHealth Care. This is an established community cancer program, fully accredited with Commendation by the American College of Surgeons Commission on Cancer and QOPI® Certified. 

 

UW Health and ProHealth Care are in collaboration to provide breakthrough therapies, promising clinical trials, state-of-the-art technology and exceptional patient care to people with cancer and hematologic malignancies. This ensures that care is comprehensive and easy for patients to navigate. 

 

The APP provides comprehensive, evidence-based care to improve the lives of people with cancer and hematologic malignancies. Care is provided in the ambulatory and hospital settings. The APP is involved in the triage and outpatient care of patients, including acute care visits, management of infusion reactions, chemotherapy and immunotherapy pre-treatment visits, palliative care, symptom management and survivorship care. The APP rotates to the hospital, as a consulting provider. There is collaboration with a strong interdisciplinary team, with the APP providing coordination of care, education and support for each patient and their family. 

 

The ideal APP candidate is compassionate, motivated, self-directed, enthusiastic and committed to evidence-based practice.

 

This is primarily a weekday position, with weekend and holiday call rotation. 

 

We Offer: 

  • A culture that's warm, welcoming, and vibrant.
  • A team-oriented work environment where opinions are respected and teamwork is valued.
  • Leading-edge technology with opportunities to learn and grow.
  • Highly competitive wages, an outstanding benefits package and resources to help you further your education.

 

Last year, our more than 5,000 employees and providers spoke up about their love for their jobs and the work that they do, leading Forbes to name ProHealth Care as a best-in-state employer in Wisconsin. We know that a welcoming culture is built every day, and we want you to be a part of it. After all, it's the way you should be treated.
