Job Description:
At RMA, we pride ourselves on managing acute and chronic pain onsite in skilled nursing facilities. Having pain providers on-site to treat pain is critical. APPs will provide specialized care to patients who suffer from various pain conditions, such as musculoskeletal, neuropathic, or centralized pain. APPs assess the risk of opioid-related problems and implement strategies to prevent or address them, including urine drug screening, risk assessment tools, prescription drug monitoring databases, and patient education.
APPs coordinate care with other providers such as primary care physicians and APPs, nurses, therapists, and palliative care teams, to ensure a patient-centered approach. Having pain management services onsite minimizes the need for families and staff to have to coordinate and pay for transportation to outside pain management facilities.
