Merakey is seeking a Licensed Practical Nurse to join our Behavioral Health Urgent Care (BHUCC) team in Philadelphia, Pa. This posting is Full-time, First Shift (Monday - Friday 10:30am - 7:00pm EST).

 

Earn $31.25/hr.

 

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. We serve individuals experiencing emotional distress, mental health concerns, and/or substance use concerns. 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.

This position works under the supervision of the CRNP(s) and in collaboration with the multi-disciplinary BHUCC team.
