Our On-Demand Care Department is the largest, most-comprehensive in Nevada for outpatient episodic care, with a quarter million visits annually.  The department includes six urgent cares and seven retail clinics, offering a full-spectrum of services, with on-site laboratory, radiology (which includes CT and ultrasound), observation unit and infusion center.  Our practice is nearly paperless, with electronic health records, digital radiology, electronic prescriptions and e-visits.  The practice encompasses the full scope of urgent care and is evidence-based and protocol driven.  Our department also includes a robust telemedicine practice, with nearly 15,000 virtual consultations since 2014.

The schedule is equitable and flexible, with ample time off.  Providers work primarily three 12-hour shifts a week, with some weekend, night and holiday shifts distributed evenly among the staff.  Additional shifts, which are paid at a premium rate, are also available.  The schedule is ideal for those who desire an alternative work schedule and who do not wish to conform to a traditional five-day work week.  Our total compensation is extremely competitive, with incentive bonuses and a rich benefits package.
