Role and Facility Information
The South Okanagan Similkameen Division of Family Practice has partnered with the Ministry of Health, Interior Health Authority, and Penticton Indian Band to create a Primary Care Network to address the health care needs of our community.
Nurse Practitioners in our Primary Care Network will practise autonomously and interdependently within the existing primary care provider network.
Bring your clinical expertise and passion for providing quality, compassionate care to a challenging and rewarding role as a Nurse Practitioner for the Primary Care Network in the South Okanagan where a cohesive network of full-service providers deliver all aspects of primary care in our community.
This opportunity is situated in a Penticton clinic, which is home to four GPs supported by a wonderful team of MOAs. As an NP in the South Okanagan Similkameen, you will be in great company: since the launch of our Primary Care Network in 2019, ten Nurse Practitioners have joined primary care practices in our communities. Our Division of Family Practice has a dedicated clinic and practice support team who have supported each one of them in getting their practice established - and they are keen to do the same for you. Furthermore, you will be welcomed to join the SOS Division of Family Practice as a full voting member.
Applications are invited from candidates with:
• Current provisional/practising registration as a Nurse Practitioner with the British Columbia College of Nurses and Midwives (BCCNM)
• Relevant, clinical nursing experience
In the South Okanagan, you can enjoy pristine lakes and mountains with endless opportunity for water sports, road cycling, mountain biking, a top-rated climbing destination, three world class ski hills and two world class cross-country ski areas. There again, you can enjoy the sun and scenery at a restaurant or winery, and sip on local wine while enjoying a delicious meal.
Culture and opportunities for creativity abound – music, markets, painting, pottery, theatre, dancing –we’ve got it all.
And when you need an urban fix, Kelowna is just a 45 minute drive away and Vancouver is less than an hour by air.
Enjoy a well-compensated, satisfying career and unlimited recreational opportunities. Join us - we’d love to share this great life with you.
