Acute Care Nurse Practitioner – Ambassador Travel Team

To prospective teammates,

I’m the director of the Sound Physicians Hospital Medicine Ambassador program (travel team). I have been a part of Sound for six years. I’m proud of the Ambassador team we’ve built and welcome interest from experienced and certified acute care nurse practitioners (ACNPs) who desire a career change. I’d like to share more about it, specifically about our people, practice, and purpose, as you consider your next steps:

• We’re an established and quickly growing team of 25 acute-care certified advanced practice providers.

• Our nurse practitioners are Certified in Acute Care.

• Benefits include medical, dental, vision, life and AD&D insurance, long- and short-term disability, 401k with match, paid medical malpractice and tail coverage, and annual CME allowance.

• We put patients first. Always.
• Focusing on growth and development is a key feature of Sound practices, where teammates can expand their careers locally and within the broader medical group.
