What are the responsibilities and job description for the Nurse Practitioner - Rheumatology position at Arthritis / Rheumatology Practice - SLC/Provo?
We are a small private practice rheumatology practice in Central Utah, dedicated to providing exceptional care to patients with autoimmune and musculoskeletal conditions.
Our providers are committed to a collaborative, patient-centered approach, and we’re seeking a motivated Nurse Practitioner (NP) to join us.
This role is open to candidates with a Primary Care background, who are eager to specialize in rheumatology. However, in this case we would recommend a part time approach (8-10 hours performing infusions, 8-10 patient-facing hours a week. Shadowing opportunities exist beyond that to help you get prepared to see additional patients).

- Participate in ongoing training to build expertise in rheumatology
Qualifications
- Current licensure as a Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant in Idaho.
