About this role
Ascension's urgent care clinic in Manhattan, Kansas is seeking a Nurse Practitioner to join a small, established team within a nonprofit health system. You would evaluate and treat patients with acute illnesses and minor injuries in a fast-paced setting, with direct access to onsite X-ray and laboratory services. Your responsibilities would include ordering and interpreting diagnostic tests, performing urgent care procedures such as wound repair and splinting, and maintaining thorough electronic health records. The clinic serves a population of approximately 130,000 across the Manhattan area and handles a range of cases including pediatrics.
This employed position requires a Master's degree in Nursing and Kansas NP certification prior to hire, along with BLS certification within your first month. While one year of family medicine or urgent care experience is preferred, the clinic appears structured to support newer practitioners with its collaborative team of one physician and seven other advanced practice providers. Ascension emphasizes physician-led culture, practice stability, and mission-centered care within its national nonprofit Catholic health system network, though this role offers local autonomy in a community-based setting.
