Barton Associates is seeking a dedicated Family Practice Nurse Practitioner for a 53-day assignment in Alaska, starting August 13, 2026. This role is designed to support a village clinic that serves as the sole medical facility for the community. The position operates in a fast-paced environment where the scope of care varies by season, requiring adaptability and clinical independence.
As the sole provider in the clinic, you will manage a wide variety of standard family medicine cases, ranging from acute illnesses like colds, coughs, and flu to chronic conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and substance abuse. The schedule runs from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, with additional weekend and weeknight on-call coverage to ensure continuous patient care. You will utilize the Cerner EMR system to assess patients and provide comprehensive care, referring serious cases to higher levels of care when necessary.
Locum tenens jobs, often referred to as travel assignments, are contract positions that help meet patient care needs at various healthcare facilities for a defined period. These roles can vary in length from a single week to over a year, often with options for extension. Medical professionals who undertake locum or travel work possess the same qualifications as permanent staff and frequently opt for these roles due to benefits such as competitive remuneration and greater scheduling flexibility.
This assignment offers strong compensation and covers travel-related expenses. A-rated medical malpractice insurance is provided, and you will be assigned a dedicated recruiter to assist with future travel opportunities.
To inquire about the competitive weekly pay and apply for this ASAP start date, please contact the dedicated recruiter directly.
