The Department of Psychiatry at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) has an outstanding opportunity for a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner licensed in the State of Oregon who are interested in moonlighting.  OHSU’s Department of Psychiatry, in partnership with other major Oregon health systems, is a 100+ bed psychiatric hospital and 75-bed psychiatric emergency service in Northeast Portland. 

We use a non-coercive, highly community oriented treatment program, which will prevent hospitalization when possible, and return patients to community services as soon as feasible. The hospital is a major training site for the department’s residency training program, medical students, and other health profession’s trainees. This is a unique opportunity for a creative, energetic Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner to treat, teach and advance their academic interests. 

The Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner at Unity Center for Behavioral Health provides mental health care in an inpatient setting.

Academic rank begins at the level of Adjunct Instructor and may be higher depending upon credentials.  All applicants must be licensed as a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner in the state of Oregon. The position offers very competitive pay and benefits.

We are Oregon’s only public academic health center.

In addition to caring for patients, we lead groundbreaking research.  We also train the next generation of health care professionals.  As Portland’s largest employer, we give you opportunities to learn and advance in a system of hospitals and clinics across Oregon and Southwest Washington.

All are welcome.

OHSU welcomes people of all ages, ethnicities, genders, national origins, religions and sexual orientations.  We are striving to build an anti-racist, multicultural institution and encourage people with diverse backgrounds to apply.
