Full Job Description
Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner - Mentally STRONG
Location: Colorado Springs, CO
Schedule: On-site, Monday-Thursday, 7:30 am-5:30 pm (~38 hours/week)
Employment Type: Full-Time, W2


🧩 Your Day as a PMHNP
Start at 7:45 with a team huddle to connect and prep for the day. Coordinate schedules with students and teammates while reviewing your patient list.
Patients arrive: some are new intakes with a student, others are medication follow-ups initiated by a mental health technician. Each session is powered by AI-assisted charting: you record, "push," and move on.
Most patient slots are 10 minutes every 30 minutes. Complex or high-risk patients take longer. You make rapid medical decisions, sometimes handling suicidal or violent patients-with support from the team.
Throughout the day, you collaborate, mentor students, and contribute to a high-performing team. You finish knowing you impacted dozens of patients while staying supported and resilient.
This is fast-paced and challenging-but deeply rewarding for PMHNPs who thrive on efficiency, teamwork, and tangible patient results.

⚑ The Process
  1. Video Application: Submit a 3-5 minute video answering specific questions. Deadline: 1 week.
  2. Shadow Day: Experience a full day with our PMHNPs and see the pace, patient flow, and team culture.
  3. Decision: We make offers within 1 day of shadowing.
Typical timeline: 1-2 weeks from application to offer.
