    Position Focus:


    In 1971, Yale University established Yale Health to provide health services to its faculty, staff and students through a multidisciplinary health maintenance organization located on campus.

    Yale Health has more than 47,000 members including students, staff, faculty and their families who come from every state in the country and almost every country in the world.


    Our state-of-the-art facility at 55 Lock Street, is where our members receive most of their care from our 150+ providers.

    It is a 144,000 square foot medical facility with over 90 exam rooms, an Acute Care Department, a 15-bed inpatient facility with two negative pressure rooms, a diagnostic imaging suite including MR and CT scan, x-ray and ultrasound and a full-service retail pharmacy.

    Yale Student Health (SH) provides primary care to all 6000 undergraduate, and 7500 graduate/professional students and their spouses.

    We work closely with Mental Health and Counseling, consisting of over 30 clinicians, Acute Care, and the Infirmary and Hospital rounding teams.

    We also collaborate with our patient educator, SHARE (Sexual Harassment and Assault Response and Education), and a team of nutritionists.

    Access to multiple on-site subspecialties, the pharmacy, diagnostic radiology, and laboratory rounds out our ability to provide comprehensive and timely care.


    Advanced Practice Practitioners in the Department of Student Health are expected to provide patient-centered, culturally sensitive care using evidence-based medicine.

    We are interested in candidates who prioritize collaboration and professionalism, and who can readily apply their education and experience to the care of our unique and talented, highly intelligent student population.

    An ability to easily communicate with, and teach, people from all walks of life is imperative.

    Practitioners are expected to stay abreast of changes in clinical guidelines, and best practices, and are encouraged to regularly attend national conferences with a goal of bringing back information regarding cutting edge research and expert knowledge to the group.

    Practitioners are also expected to serve as resources for our RNs and medical assistants.


    Responsibilities include:

    • Obtain and fully document detailed and appropriate histories and physical exams.
    • Collaborate with students in the formulation of a differential diagnosis and plan of care and execute care in a timely manner.
    • Maintain professional, clear, and regular communication with consultants and students regarding plan of care.
    • Assist students with navigation through the specialty clinics, and the hospital system, particularly when the students are waived.
    • Communicate with Yale New Haven Hospital personnel, Infirmary staff, Yale University Deans and Heads of College, and parents regarding individual patients when appropriate.
    • Maintain clean and up-to-date charting, including closing encounters within 24 hours, answering all MyChart messages within 48 hours, and sharing and explaining all lab and radiologic study results with students within 48 hours of availability.
    • Assist in coverage of duties when colleagues are out.
    • Participate in late and weekend hours.

    Preferred Education, Experience and Skills:
    Proven experience with college health.
