  • Strong clinical skills and commitment to patient-centered care
  • Excellent communication and teamwork abilities
  • Experience in a hospital or public health setting (preferred, not required)

  • Up to 49 days paid time off per year (vacation, sick, federal holidays)
  • Federal pension + 401(k)-style (TSP) retirement plan
  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Malpractice coverage provided
  • Continuing education support + potential student loan repayment
