About the Role
HireNow Staffing is seeking a clinically sharp and patient-centered Nurse Practitioner to lead wound care services in a well-established outpatient clinic located in beautiful Alamogordo, New Mexico. This role is ideal for a provider who enjoys autonomy, procedure-based practice, and developing long-term therapeutic relationships with patients recovering from complex wounds.

You'll be part of a compassionate and collaborative team that treats a wide range of patients with chronic and acute wound care needs diabetic ulcers, pressure injuries, surgical site complications, and more. If you're driven by improving outcomes and reducing hospital readmissions through hands-on, high-touch care, this is your opportunity to shine.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform in-depth wound assessments and implement evidence-based treatment protocols

• Provide sharp debridement, application of advanced dressings, and wound vac management

• Collaborate with physicians, physical therapists, home health providers, and specialists as needed to coordinate care

• Educate patients and caregivers on wound prevention, self-care, and proper hygiene practices

• Document progress in a timely and compliant manner using electronic medical records

• Identify early signs of complications such as infection or delayed healing

• Participate in team meetings and contribute to quality improvement initiatives

Who Were Looking For

Required:

• Master's degree (or higher) from an accredited Nurse Practitioner program

• Active New Mexico Nurse Practitioner license

• Minimum of 1 year of experience in urgent care, primary care, or relevant clinical setting

• Comfortable with wound management, procedural care, and clinical autonomy

Preferred:

• Professional fluency in Spanish (written and spoken)

• Wound care certification (WOCN, WCC, or similar) a strong plus

• Familiarity with outpatient EMR systems and interdisciplinary communication

• Experience with underserved, rural, or high-complexity patient populations

Schedule & Location

• Monday/Friday | 8:00 AM/5:00 PM

• Possibility of one Saturday per month (rotating)

• No overnight or on-call responsibilities

• Candidates considering relocation should be prepared to attend an onsite interview with family or other key decision-makers

Why This Role Stands Out

• Rewarding work: See tangible results as you help patients regain mobility and improve their quality of life

• Autonomous practice: Run your own cases while still benefiting from a collaborative medical team

• Stability & growth: Join a respected clinic deeply embedded in the local community

• Natural beauty & affordability: Work in a town framed by mountains, desert trails, and scenic landscapes with a low cost of living

If you're a Nurse Practitioner who brings both precision and empathy to procedural care, and you're ready for a role that offers both impact and independence this is your next move.
