Where You'll Be Working

We're looking for a home health clinician to cover the beautiful and diverse area of Central Inland San Diego, including Hillcrest, North Park, City Heights, Mission Valley, Old Town, Clairemont, and more. This is the heart of San Diego, where you can grab an amazing taco in between seeing patients, explore unique shops and restaurants, or catch some waves after you're done documenting. With a vibrant, energetic pace and a central location, you'll find plenty to do without a long commute. This diverse area, including City Heights and North Park, has a large refugee and immigrant population. Spanish, Vietnamese, and other languages like Somali or Farsi would be very helpful, but are not required to build a caseload!
