A different kind of clinical practice

If you're looking for a clinical role that offers greater flexibility, autonomy and work/life balance without giving up meaningful patient care, Wound Care Specialists may be the opportunity you've been looking for.

You don't have to be a wound-care expert to join us

Wound-care experience is preferred, but it is not required for our Connecticut and Massachusetts opportunities.

Whether you're an experienced wound-care provider or an NP/physician with a strong background in skilled nursing, geriatrics, internal medicine, family medicine, post-acute care or another relevant specialty, we provide the training and support you need to succeed.

No wound-care certification is required to start. WCS provides detailed, physician-led wound-care training and will pay for your wound-care certification.

What You'll Do

As a WCS provider, you'll work directly with nursing-facility teams to evaluate and manage patients with acute and chronic wounds.

Your responsibilities include:

• Conduct weekly bedside wound-care rounds
• Evaluate wounds and develop individualized treatment plans
• Perform debridement and change dressings when clinically appropriate
• Establish and update plans of care between visits
• Collaborate with facility nurses and other members of the care team
• Provide education and occasional in-service training to facility staff
• Work within facility protocols and formularies
• Document care using our dedicated wound-care EHR
• Monitor wound progress and adjust treatment plans as appropriate

Your Typical Day

Rather than spending your day in an office seeing back-to-back patients, you'll travel within your local territory and visit nursing facilities.

A full-time provider typically serves multiple facilities within a small geographic footprint, allowing you to build relationships with facility teams while maintaining a predictable schedule.

Typical caseloads after training:

NP: approximately 100–130 patient encounters/week

Physician: approximately 150 patient encounters/week

Part-time and PRN schedules of 20-100 patient encounters/week are available based on facility needs and your availability.

What we're looking for

We're looking for clinicians who are:

• Licensed to practice in the state where they will work (active state license preferred)
• Comfortable working independently while collaborating with facility nursing teams
• Patient-focused and committed to quality care
• Approachable and comfortable building relationships with nursing-facility staff
• Organized and able to manage a territory efficiently
• Interested in developing expertise in wound care

Experience

Wound-care experience is preferred, but not required for CT and MA positions.

We are particularly interested in clinicians with experience in:

• Skilled nursing facilities
• Long-term care
• Post-acute care
• Geriatrics
• Internal medicine
• Family medicine
• Wound care
• Vascular care
• Surgery
• Home health
• Other settings involving complex/chronic patient care

No minimum number of years of experience is required. New graduates/residents as well as highly experienced clinicians may be considered based on the position and location.

What makes WCS different?

Practice medicine

·      Our providers receive administrative support so they can keep their focus where it belongs: patient care.

Get out of the office

·      If you enjoy interacting with patients and care teams rather than being confined to an office all day, you'll appreciate our bedside model.

Become a wound-care expert

·      Receive detailed, physician-led orientation and training while developing a valuable clinical specialty.

Autonomy with support

·      You'll have the independence to practice while working within a collaborative model supported by experienced wound-care clinicians.

Meaningful patient impact

·      Our model is focused on improving wound outcomes and reducing preventable wound-related complications and hospitalizations. We are not focused on debridement quotas.
