We think. We act. We deliver. There is no challenge we can't turn into opportunity. And our work depends on a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner joining our team to support customer activities.
The Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner is an embedded behavioral health provider who delivers comprehensive psychiatric assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and counseling to optimize psychological readiness, resilience, and recovery. The PMHNP supports personnel and families operating under high-intensity demands, focusing on brain health, preventive care, and management of acute and chronic mental health conditions.

Technically direct and teach other staff, provide evidenced-based educational lectures and participate in in-service training to staff members.
Diagnose and treat clients with common acute conditions, chronic illnesses, or minor trauma within accepted protocols, clinical practice guidelines, Nurse Practice Acts, and/or in consultation with a physician.
Promote preventive care and health maintenance including annual physical, positive health behaviors and self-care through both formal and individual education and counseling.
Communicate mental health concepts in a way that resonates with elite operators who may be skeptical of traditional psychological support.
Communicate and collaborate with a diverse group of people for the purpose of informing the healthcare team of plans/actions, for teaching/education to benefit the client/family and organization.
Provide Command consultation regarding de-identified trends of morale and behavioral health to help inform operational tempos.
Recognize conditions that require isolation and ensure universal precautions are used in all client encounters.
Attend staff meetings to provide case discussion, continuing education, and continuous quality improvement and safety.
WHAT YOU'LL NEED TO SUCCEED:

Current, full, active, and unrestricted license as a graduate professional nurse in a State, Territory or Commonwealth of the United States, or the District of Columbia.
Board certification as a PMHNP by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), American Academy of Nurse Practitioners (AANP) or the recognized national nursing certification organization for the specialty area of practice as appropriate
Minimum five (5) years of post-graduate experience in the independent practice of clinical psychiatric nursing.
Two (2) years prior experience in the DoW or VA setting.
Understanding of military culture and operational stressors of the operator community in SOF.
Proficiency in treating Post-Traumatic Stress (PTS), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), and chronic pain.
Provide advice on administrative, supply, and resource matters within their technical area.
Collaborate across all performance and support domains to ensure high-quality services.
