Job description

Experienced APPs - Want an Alaskan Adventure? Get a $50,000 sign-on bonus to help you settle in and earn up to $142K (depending on Experience & Location).

SEARHC currently has openings for Nurse Practitioners & Physician Assistants in the close-knit communities of Angoon, Gustavus, Hydaburg, Kake and Klawock. APPs must have an active License as an NP or PA and at least 3 years of experience as a practicing provider (2 years of experience for positions in Hydaburg).

This is an excellent opportunity for anyone looking for a fresh start in a beautiful location where they can have a truly meaningful impact within the local community.

And that’s not all … Here are 10 more reasons why you should consider making the move.

• Earn more - A full-time APP job with SEARHC comes with a $50,000 sign-on bonus, $10,000 in relocation assistance to help with the move, and $4,000 in annual tuition reimbursement after a year of employment. Geographical differential pay varies by community.

• Get paid to live in Alaska - Believe it or not, Alaska will actually pay you to move there through its established Permanent Fund Dividend Program. Every year, full-time residents of Alaska receive royalties from the Permanent Fund’s investment earnings.

• Enjoy the great outdoors - You’ll be hard-pressed to find anywhere as uniquely beautiful as Alaska. From snow-covered mountains to awe-inspiring skies, and a dormant volcano, the natural beauty of Alaska is breath-taking. You’ll see and experience the world’s most beautiful wildlife, natural phenomena, and landscapes regularly.

• Comprehensive benefits - Kick in on the 1st of the month immediately following your hire date. Get medical, dental & vision benefits, Life/AD&D insurance, short & long-term disability insurance, a flexible spending account, 401(k), employee assistance, and more.

• Generous paid time off - As an APP with SEARHC, you’ll earn 260 hours of PTO.

• A slower, more relaxed pace of life - Working in a small hospital means work is less stressful, more patient-focused and leads to great working relationships.

• Small town charms with great history - These small Alaskan towns have great food, art, and culture, but without the high prices and incessant traffic of other major cities.

• Amazing summers - With almost 24 hours of daylight, it doesn’t get more magical than an Alaskan summer. Whatever your sport of choice — fishing, backpacking, kayaking, mountain biking, paddle boarding, hang gliding and more — summer in Alaska is perfect for it.

• Cost of living - Although it may be more expensive to live in Alaska, the tax rate is the lowest in the United States. There’s no income tax and housing is also rather affordable.

• Life in the great outdoors is not an afterthought, it’s a priority - A weekend in Alaska usually involves hiking or backpacking through beautiful landscapes or spending some time out by the water fishing or camping. You’ll still have to work, but being “outdoorsy” will be an integral part of your everyday life.

If you’re craving a change of scene or needing peace and quiet, Alaska is where you’ll find it.
