Are you looking for an opportunity to advance your career while working with an extraordinary team?

At Merakey, we put our heart and soul into everything we do.

We seek a PMHNP to join our NEW! Behavioral Health Urgent Care (BHUCC) team in Philadelphia, Pa.

We are a mental health urgent care/walk-in center for adults in need of same-day care that is not an emergency in Philadelphia.

Individuals will participate in triage, resolution-focused services, and aftercare planning to prepare for long-term recovery and connection to ongoing care. We serve individuals regardless of income or insurance status. Our services do not replace the need for ongoing mental health care; rather, we aim to reduce avoidable visits to crisis centers and emergency rooms by helping people get the care they need when they need it.

  • Provides comprehensive psychiatric and behavioral health urgent care services to individuals.
  • Works under the supervision of the psychiatrist.
  • Conduct evaluations, provide clinical interventions, and works within the multidisciplinary BHUCC team to deliver coordinated, quality care.
