Nurse Practitioner, Advanced Practice Provider

The purpose of a Nurse Practitioner at Oak Street Health is to provide effective and equitable value-based primary care to adults on medicare to keep them happy, healthy, and out of the hospital. Nurse Practitioners see patients independently and collaborate with physicians, depending on the patient’s specific situation. Nurse Practitioners provide longitudinal care and build meaningful patient relationships; this creates trust and helps our patients understand and feel connected to their care plan. Nurse Practitioners practice in our outpatient practices on a collaborative care team composed of a physician, nurse practitioner or physician assistant, medical assistants, a dedicated medical scribe, and support from registered nurses and care managers. We partner with a network of elite specialists and hospitals for specialty and acute care. As such, our healthcare providers can focus on care within the clinic: primary care, care coordination, and population health.
