Physician Assistant or Nurse Practitioner | Part-time | Lock Haven University

Advanced Practice Provider (Physician Assistant or Nurse Practitioner)

Lock Haven University | Student Health

UPMC is seeking an Advanced Practice Provider (Physician Assistant/PA or Certified Registered Nurse Practitioner/CRNP) to join our Student Health team at Lock Haven University. This role offers a unique outpatient-focused experience delivering care to a college student population, with a blend of in-person visits and virtual support for students at Mansfield and Bloomsburg Universities.

This is an excellent opportunity for providers who enjoy a predictable schedule, value work-life balance, and are passionate about supporting the health and well-being of young adults in an academic setting.

Schedule & Work-Life Balance

• Monday–Friday schedule, 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM
  • No nights, weekends, or holiday requirements 
• Work schedule aligns with the academic calendar year
  • No coverage when students are not in session (Summer, Winter-break, Spring-break, etc.)
• Predictable, consistent schedule in an outpatient setting
• This is considered a Part-time/Nonexempt position with access to UPMC's Regular Part-time benefits 
• Blend of In-person care: Lock Haven University, and Virtual visits: Mansfield & Bloomsburg University students

Why This Role Stands Out

• 100% outpatient practice with a focused and manageable patient population
• Opportunity to work directly within a university community and impact student health
• Blend of onsite care and virtual visits across multiple campuses
• Strong work-life balance with no after-hours responsibilities
• Collaborative, supportive care environment within a mission-driven organization

What You'll Do

• Provide comprehensive outpatient care to college students, including evaluation and treatment of acute and episodic conditions
• Conduct virtual visits for students located at Mansfield and Bloomsburg Universities
• Assess, diagnose, and develop treatment plans using evidence-based practice
• Order and interpret diagnostic tests as appropriate
• Educate patients on health maintenance, wellness, and preventive care
• Collaborate with interdisciplinary team members to ensure coordinated, high-quality care
• Maintain accurate and timely documentation in the electronic medical record

• Knowledge of growth and development principles
• Ability to provide age-appropriate patient care across the lifespan
• Ability to assess patient data and deliver care per departmental policies
• Strong interpersonal, critical thinking, and clinical judgment skills with the ability to work effectively in a fast-paced environment
• Physical stamina and dexterity required for direct patient care
• Successful attainment and maintenance of hospital privileges, where applicable.
