Nurse Practitioner – Wound Care (Value-Based Care Model) The Wound Company | In-Home & Assisted Living Care

Description

Are you a Nurse Practitioner who wants to practice medicine the way it was meant to be—focused on patients, not procedures?

At The Wound Company, we’re redefining wound care. As the nation’s first value-based wound care organization, we prioritize longitudinal patient relationships, early intervention, and clinically appropriate care—not volume-driven, fee-for-service procedures. Our providers are empowered to spend meaningful time with patients, coordinate care thoughtfully, and deliver outcomes that truly matter.

Why Join Us?

  • Practice with purpose in a model that rewards quality—not quantity
  • Build meaningful, long-term relationships with patients through longitudinal care
  • Work alongside an elite team of wound-certified Nurse Practitioners and WOCNCB-certified Wound Care Nurses
  • Deliver care where patients need it most—in their homes and care communities
  • Be part of an innovative organization making wound care more accessible, affordable, and effective

What You’ll Do

As a Wound Care Nurse Practitioner, you will:

  • Provide comprehensive evaluation and management of acute and chronic wounds, ostomies, and related skin conditions
  • Deliver care primarily in patients’ homes and assisted living facilities, with opportunities to expand into skilled nursing facilities (SNFs)
  • Utilize telehealth to enhance access, continuity, and timely interventions when appropriate
  • Perform debridement and other procedures only when medically necessary, in strict alignment with CMS guidelines and best practices
  • Determine visit frequency based on clinical need, ensuring patients are seen on a medically necessary cadence—not routine weekly wound checks
  • Collaborate closely with primary care providers, specialists, and interdisciplinary care teams
  • Develop and implement individualized, evidence-based treatment plans
  • Focus on early intervention, prevention, and durable healing outcomes—not unnecessary procedures

A Typical Day

  • See an average of 3–5 patients per day, primarily through in-person visits
  • Travel within thoughtfully designed geographic zones that group patients together to minimize unnecessary driving
  • Spend extended, meaningful time with each patient to assess, treat, and educate
  • Schedule and follow up with patients based on medical necessity and healing progression, not fixed visit schedules
  • Use the remainder of your day to collaborate closely with home health agencies, ancillary services, and caregivers
  • Ensure your plan of treatment (POT) is being carried out effectively and is achieving the intended clinical outcomes
  • Adjust care plans proactively based on patient progress and care team feedback

What Makes This Role Different

Unlike traditional mobile wound care models, we don’t chase procedures—we optimize outcomes.

Our approach centers on:

  • Engaging patients earlier in their wound journey to prevent complications
  • Delivering clinically appropriate, evidence-based care
  • Treating patients based on medical necessity rather than routine visit schedules
  • Reducing avoidable interventions through proactive, longitudinal management
  • Supporting providers with a collaborative, mission-driven clinical team and infrastructure

Benefits & Perks

  • 100% employer-paid premium for High-Deductible Health Plan (HDHP)
  • Up to 3 weeks of PTO in your first year
  • Competitive compensation aligned with a value-based care model
  • Opportunity for growth within a rapidly expanding, nationally recognized organization
  • Ongoing support from a highly specialized, wound-certified clinical team
