Fortis Care is seeking a Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant to serve as the dedicated on-site clinician at an upscale subacute rehabilitation and transitional care facility in Northeast Atlanta. You will provide direct medical care to a short-stay, post-acute rehabilitation population in a private-suite facility known for pairing strong clinical outcomes with a hospitality-driven experience.
Clinical Setting
This is a 4-day per week, part-time position (you may choose 1-4 days weekly) at an all-private-suite rehabilitation and transitional care facility. The facility specializes in orthopedic, cardiac, pulmonary, stroke, and neurologic recovery patients. The setting combines clinical excellence with hospitality standards, including chef-prepared dining, concierge services, and an expectation that every patient and family is treated as a guest.

- Round proactively: meet every new admission, set expectations for the stay, and check in with patients and families before they have to ask
- Manage acute and chronic conditions on-site, avoiding unnecessary transfers and hospitalizations when safe and appropriate
- Coordinate with facility leadership, therapy teams, specialists, and families to develop and update individualized care plans
- Support transitions of care, including post-hospital evaluations, medication reconciliation, and patient/family education through discharge
- Partner with the interdisciplinary team—nursing, therapy, social work, and concierge/hospitality staff—to deliver a seamless, high-touch patient experience

- Maintain thorough, timely, and compliant documentation of patient encounters and care plans

- Ability to manage a patient panel efficiently while maintaining a high standard of care and an unhurried bedside manner
