Primary Care Nurse Practitioner – Multiple Opportunities
Full-Time & Part-Time Roles Available
Scarborough, ON
Compensation: $52.83 – $74.83/hour
Prosperity Workforce Solutions is hiring Primary Care Nurse Practitioners on behalf of a well-established community health organization serving diverse and underserved populations across Scarborough.
Multiple opportunities are available across community primary care, youth wellness, mental health & addictions, and geriatrics/long-term care within a collaborative, interdisciplinary care model.
These roles are ideal for Nurse Practitioners who are passionate about equitable healthcare, adaptable in dynamic environments, and committed to supporting patients with complex medical, mental health, and social needs.
Nurse Practitioners will provide comprehensive primary care services with a strong emphasis on:
- Health promotion and disease prevention
- Chronic disease management
- Mental health and substance use care
- Care coordination and system navigation
- Supporting underserved and marginalized populations
This is not a traditional clinic-only NP role. In addition to direct clinical care, NPs play an important role in care navigation, referrals, advocacy, outreach, and interdisciplinary collaboration to improve patient access and outcomes.
Care is delivered across a variety of settings, including:
- Community health clinics
- Youth Wellness Hubs (YWHO model)
- Long-term care and geriatric programs
- Community outreach sites
- Patient homes
- Mobile/community care settings
Mobile and outreach care are integrated into all positions to improve access for patients facing barriers to traditional clinic-based services.
Work Model & Travel Expectations
This is a hub-based model operating across multiple Scarborough locations.
Nurse Practitioners are assigned a primary hub and manager but may be scheduled to work across other community sites, outreach settings, or patient homes based on operational needs and patient access priorities.
Travel may occur using:
- Personal vehicle
- Mobile clinic van
All work locations are within Scarborough. Travel time between sites is paid.
Travel between sites typically occurs approximately once per week or more depending on rotation and assignment.
Schedules are established in advance, and NPs are informed ahead of time regarding location assignments and rotations.
