Description
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant
This position requires advanced Psychiatric skill sets. You must have experience prescribing and/or recommending psychotropic medications in a Psychiatric setting.
About Us:
Senior PsychCare (SPC) provides fully integrative behavioral health services to individuals in Nursing Homes and Assisted Living Facilities across Louisiana. Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners (PMHNP) and Physician Assistants (PA) provide brief cognitive and emotional assessments, psychotropic medication management, and gradual dosage reductions. Our psychotherapy and psychiatric teams collaborate with nursing home staff to provide quality patient care.
What Makes Us Different:
Our teams are highly specialized, with Board-Certified Geriatric Psychiatrists, Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners, Licensed Psychologists, and Licensed Clinical Social Workers. The psychiatrists on staff not only provide collaboration for the NPs/PAs but also evaluate and treat the patients. SPC practices continuity of care, rather than a triage approach. We also offer telehealth services when appropriate.

Monthly Staff Meetings
Regular treatment team meetings in nursing home settings/virtual meetings
