excited to announce a two Full-Time opportunities for passionate
and dedicated Women’s Health Providers to join our growing team in
New Haven. Location: 150 Sargent Drive, New Haven, CT 428 Columbus
Avenue, New Haven, CT. Do you want to offer outstanding outpatient
obstetric and gynecologic care to medically underserved women?
Would you like to work alongside a dedicated mission-minded team of
Women’s Health providers with the support of a large multispecialty
community health center? Do you enjoy doing meaningful work in a
positive, team-oriented, patient-focused atmosphere? If so, we want
to meet you! The Women’s Health Department at Cornell Scott Hill
Health Center is looking to fill a weekday outpatient-only position
for a WHNP, or CNM. As part of our team, you will provide a balance
of obstetric care (prenatal and postpartum only), gynecologic care
(preventive and problem visits), and gynecologic procedures as
desired. Our obstetric patients deliver with the Yale physician and
midwifery service at Yale New Haven Hospital. Our patients also
benefit from our full scope of gynecologic services – from well
woman visits to major and minor gynecologic surgery, and everything
in between. The Women’s Health Department is a close-knit team
where we value the critical contributions of every member of our
staff, and where our patients feel truly known and cared for. The
Cornell Scott Hill Health Center is a prominent community health
center with sites throughout the greater New Haven area. In
addition to comprehensive primary care, we provide numerous medical
specialties (e.g. dermatology, neurology, rheumatology, and more),
adult and pediatric dental services, and extensive behavioral
health services with behavioral health providers embedded in our
primary care sites. We are closely integrated with Yale School of
Medicine and Yale School of Nursing, and we partner with numerous
local organizations to enhance the health of our community.
Certification by appropriate professional board and eligibility for
licensure in the State of Connecticut are required. Prior
outpatient obstetric and gynecologic experience is strongly
preferred, but we are willing to consider new graduates who are
committed to staying in the New Haven area. Spanish language skills
are helpful but not a must. Enthusiasm, compassion, flexibility,
and a team-oriented mindset are especially important. If you think
you might be a good fit, we look forward to hearing from you!
