Our Culture:
Why work with us?


Joining Outer Cape Health Services isn't just about taking on a new role; it's about embracing a mission that goes beyond the day-to-day.

Here, you become part of a dedicated team committed to safeguarding and nurturing invaluable community health resources.

Our ethos is built on creating a vibrant and inclusive workplace where every team member is valued and recognized for their unique contributions.


Who We Are:


Our mission is to provide a full range of primary health care and supportive social services that promote the health and well-being of all who live in or visit the ten outermost towns of Cape Cod.


OCHS now cares for more than 18,000 patients annually, and no one is denied access to services due to an inability to pay.

Founded in 1987 through the merger of Health Associates of Provincetown (established in 1972) and the AIM Medical Center in Wellfleet (established in 1966), Outer Cape Health has a long history of successful growth and expansion in pursuit of this mission.

As a Patient-Centered Medical Home, OCHS holds itself to the highest standards.

Ensuring patients have access to care when they need it and request it, and validating that staff are working at the top of their licensures, are foundations of this model.


Our Core Competencies:


At Outer Cape Health Services, our core competencies are the foundation upon which our organization is built, guiding us in our mission to deliver exceptional health services to our communities.
