Job Summary

Our company is changing the way individuals living with Serious Mental Illness (SMI) get care. We are focusing on delivering real outcomes for a cohort that has historically been underserved, stigmatized, and deprioritized. By building a service focused on whole-person care, firsthand aims to find, establish a trusting relationship with, and support quality care for individuals living with complex experiences of SMI. Our company's high-touch model will dramatically improve the health and outcomes of its engaged individuals, driving down the utilization of high-cost care while also helping individuals enroll in eligible federal, state, and municipal benefits. Most importantly, our goal is to be the trusted guide, partner, and first call for individuals we serve, guiding them to a life of stability and independence.

In doing so, we will not only improve lives, but also improve the economics for managed care plans and states responsible for providing care to this community. This enables us to build solutions that scale and, as a result, change the way our society supports those most impacted by serious mental illness. We are building a team of deeply passionate problem-solvers who are courageous enough to take on one of the country's most challenging healthcare problems. Those who are up for the task will be rewarded with deeply mission-oriented workdays, mentorship from a similarly motivated team, and a voice at the table in the earliest stages of business building.

The Nurse Practitioner / Physician Assistant leads the medical aspects of team-based care for individuals with serious mental illness that we serve. This position is responsible for documenting and supporting the medical needs of the individual, by performing a whole-person clinical assessment to identify and remediate care gaps. On an ongoing basis, this position will support care coordination among the individual's medical and behavioral health providers, making referrals as appropriate, as well as provide clinical support to Guides (peers) and Community Resources Guides (social workers).
