Job description
Provide high-touch palliative care for people facing serious illness — with structured mentorship, physician/APP backup, and a team that does not leave you to figure it out alone.
Base salary $130,000–$160,000/year plus annual performance bonus up to 12.5%.
Primarily a Monday–Friday schedule, 28 paid time off days in year one, a $0/month employee-only medical option, malpractice coverage, license/DEA support, CME, and tuition support.
Setting
License: Inpatient – Monmouth Medical Center, Long Branch NJ
New Jersey NP or PA license required
About us & the role:
NJ Palliative Care Solutions is on a mission to deliver palliative care without walls across New Jersey, partnering with leading health systems including RWJBarnabas Health. We are hiring a Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant to provide hospital-based palliative care at Monmouth Medical Center for patients living with serious illness. Palliative care experience is required for this inpatient role.
Why you’ll want this role:
A strong palliative program behind you: experienced specialists, clinical backup, and data-guided coaching.
A real interdisciplinary team: physicians, APPs, social work, care coordination, and operational support.
Clear workflows and quality expectations — not a sink-or-swim field role.
Primarily a Monday–Friday schedule with flexibility to swap workdays.
28 PTO days in year one and a $0/month employee-only medical option.
Academic pathways, CME up to $1,000/year, and tuition reimbursement up to $2,000.
What you’ll do:
Perform at the top of your license, performing best practice, holistic, patient-centered, evidence-based interdisciplinary palliative medicine.
Provide palliative care consultations and follow-up visits across the hospital continuum – from high-acuity ED and ICU encounters to ongoing management on medical, surgical, and specialty units.
Manage complex symptoms for patients with advanced illness and chronic disease.
Lead goals-of-care and advance care planning conversations with patients and families, coordinating with partner SNFs and/or hospices if and when appropriate.
Partner with the interdisciplinary team and hospital teams, fully integrating into hospital workflows and shaping the palliative medicine practice.
Complete timely documentation aligned with clinical, billing, and quality standards.
Spend as much time on discharge planning as on intake, managing transitions from inpatient to the patient’s next setting, considering each patient’s longitudinal preference and best interests.
What you bring:
Active New Jersey Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant license and national board certification.
DEA + CDS registration, or ability to obtain by start date.
2+ years of palliative care experience required.
Palliative care certification (e.g., ACHPN / CHPN) preferred.
Strong communication, clinical judgment, compassion, and comfort working on interdisciplinary teams.
Compensation & total rewards:
Competitive base salary: $130,000–$160,000/year.
Annual performance bonus up to 12.5% of base salary, rewarding both productivity (RVUs) and quality of care.
28 days of paid time off your first year, growing to 33 days at 2 years, in one flexible bank.
Malpractice & professional liability ($1M / $3M), license & DEA renewals, up to $1,000/year CME, up to $2,000 tuition reimbursement.
Medical via Cigna PPO, including a $0/month employee-only option, plus dental, vision, and an HSA.
Short- and long-term disability, voluntary life & AD&D, and accident / critical-illness / hospital coverage.
401(k) retirement plan, plus pre-tax FSA, dependent-care FSA, HSA, and commuter benefits.
24/7 Employee Assistance Program, identity-theft protection, legal plan, pet benefits, and member discounts.
This position is full-time, and full-time is our strong preference. That said, we know exceptional clinicians sometimes need a different arrangement — for the right candidate, we're open to discussing part-time or per-diem schedules. If that's you, please apply and tell us what schedule you have in mind.
