Posterity Group LLC is a veteran owned, service-disabled small business, headquartered in Rockville, MD, that specializes in federal government contracting and staffing. We are tasked with staffing The Naval Medical Clinic San Diego and associated locations with various roles, including Nurse Practitioner (PT Care Coordinator). The Nurse Practitioner are expected to do the following:

• Provide a full range of outcome-based nurse practitioner services in accordance with privileges granted by the MTF (e.g., clinically supervise and provide general screening and medical care and examinations of patients for routine, acute and chronic conditions involving any and all organ systems; provide immunizations; diagnose, treat, and counsel patients as indicated).
• Collaborate with and provide clinical guidance to members of the healthcare team in the coordination of patient care.
• Diagnose and treat patients with common acute conditions, chronic illnesses, or minor trauma within accepted protocols, clinical practice guidelines, Nurse Practice Acts, and/or in consultation with a physician.
• Promote preventive care and health maintenance including annual physical, positive health behaviors and self-care through both formal and individual education and counseling.
• Communicate and collaborate with a diverse group of people for the purpose of informing the healthcare team of plans/actions, for teaching/education to benefit the patient/family and organization.
• Recognize conditions that require isolation and ensure universal precautions are used in all patient encounters.
• Attend staff meetings to provide case discussion, continuing education, and continuous quality improvement and safety.
• The Nurse Practitioner (NP) will provide comprehensive inpatient, outpatient, and telehealth care for maxillofacial surgery patients as an embedded member of the Maxillofacial Surgery service and the Center of Excellence in Maxillofacial Restoration. The NP will serve as a key continuity provider across the care continuum, supporting surgeon-led care delivery while exercising independent clinical judgment within established protocols, collaborative practice agreements, and Maxillofacial Surgery–defined care pathways.
• The NP will assess, evaluate, and manage patients across preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative phases of care, with particular emphasis on complex and multidisciplinary populations. Responsibilities include perioperative coordination, inpatient management, post-discharge follow-up, and patient education.
• The role prioritizes continuity and optimization of surgical outcomes rather than independent service line development. The NP will work closely with Maxillofacial Surgery residents to support patient care delivery, continuity, and clinical efficiency, while preserving resident educational opportunities and scope of training.
• The NP will participate in inpatient rounds, outpatient clinics, and multidisciplinary conferences. In collaboration with Maxillofacial Surgery faculty and program leadership, the NP will contribute to workflow optimization, quality and safety initiatives, outcomes tracking, and operational support of the Center of Excellence.
• While the NP practices with professional autonomy appropriate to advanced practice licensure, clinical activities will remain aligned with the mission, scope, and strategic priorities of the Maxillofacial Surgery service and Center of Excellence.
