Job Summary

Bring your clinical expertise and passion for providing quality, compassionate care to a challenging and rewarding role as a Nurse Practitioner (NP) on the Hyperacute Stroke Unit at Abbotsford Regional Hospital (ARH) in Abbotsford, B.C.

As a key member of a progressive and dynamic stroke neurology team, the NP provides expert consultation and specialized care for patients in the hyperacute phase of stroke, ensuring rapid assessment, intervention, and coordination of time-sensitive treatments such as thrombolysis. The NP supports patients across the full continuum of stroke care from emergency consultation to inpatient management, contributing to improved outcomes through early diagnosis, acute stabilization, and advanced clinical management.

Working in close collaboration with an interdisciplinary Stroke Team—including Neurologists, nursing, and Allied Health professionals—you will play a central role in delivering high-quality, evidence-informed care. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a multidisciplinary team committed to innovation, clinical excellence, and achieving the best possible outcomes for individuals experiencing stroke.

ARH is a 280 bed, University of British Columbia affiliated hospital offering medical, surgical, obstetrics, inpatient pediatrics, renal, cardiology, tertiary palliative care, helipad, as well as 24/7 emergency services with nearly 80,000 visits annually. We are currently looking for a Nurse Practitioner to join us working with Internal Medicine Services across Abbotsford Regional Hospital.

Abbotsford is in the heart of the Fraser Valley, one hour (70km) southeast of Vancouver’s city centre. This large rural city in the country is set against stunning views of British Columbia’s (BC) Coast Mountains and Washington’s Mount Baker. With a lower cost of living than Metro Vancouver, the area attracts residents who want a slower pace and enjoy a small-town feel. Here what the team has to say about their experience working and/or living in Abbotsford.
