This role is designed for a provider who thrives in dynamic environments. You will operate as the lead on the mobile unit, traveling approximately 50-100 miles from Grass Valley to serve patients in surrounding rural areas. The position requires a unique blend of clinical excellence and operational independence, as you will be responsible for the day-to-day management of the unit, including cleaning, stocking, fueling, and waste tank maintenance. This is a full-time opportunity (168 shifts per year) that offers the chance to make a heroic impact in a community where healthcare providers are deeply appreciated.

Where You'll Work

Imagine living and working in the beautiful Sierra Nevada foothills. Grass Valley and Nevada County offer a rich blend of history, charm, and outdoor adventure.

With a population of 13,000 residents and a service area of 100,000 lives, the community is close-knit yet connected to the Sacramento metro area (57 miles away). The region boasts year-round moderate weather, making it an ideal location for hiking, cycling, fishing, camping, hunting, boating, skiing, golfing, and gold panning.
