Job Summary

The Opportunity

Mass General Brigham’s Population Health team is committed to enhancing the health care experience for older adults through personalized, home-based care that supports independence, functionality, and quality of life. We develop innovative programs that deliver care where and when it is needed most. This patient-centered model ensures that care is tailored to the unique needs of each individual. By leveraging interdisciplinary collaboration and proactive care management, our value-based care models address the complex needs of older adults.

This is an exciting opportunity to join the Mass General Brigham Population Health department as a Nurse Practitioner within the GRACE (Geriatric Resources for Assessment and Care of Elders) program. The GRACE Nurse Practitioner will provide home-based geriatric assessment and care management for older adults aligned with Mass General Brigham’s Primary Care Providers. This role is designed to proactively support vulnerable older adults, ensuring comprehensive, coordinated care that aligns with their goals and preferences.

As part of this initiative, the GRACE Nurse Practitioner will play a key role in:

1) Conducting in-home geriatric assessments in collaboration with a GRACE Social Worker.
2) Developing and implementing individualized care plans using GRACE care protocols.
3) Engaging patients and caregivers in health education, chronic disease management, and goals-of-care discussions.
4) Coordinating care with primary care providers and the GRACE interdisciplinary team to optimize outcomes and reduce unnecessary hospital utilization.

This role is an essential part of Mass General Brigham’s commitment to improving care delivery for high-risk older adults through proactive, patient-centered management. The GRACE Nurse Practitioner will build strong, lasting relationships with patients—offering culturally responsive care, continuity, and education to help manage complex health conditions and promote maximum functioning.

We are seeking a full-time, 40-hour Nurse Practitioner with weekly schedules consisting of 36 hours of clinical, patient-facing time, and 4 hours of administrative time. This will be a hybrid role with the expectation that the Nurse Practitioner will conduct home visits in the Boston/Boston metro area up to 2 days per week and work remotely for the remainder of the week. Potential Primary Care clinics include:

Key components of GRACE Team Care include:

- In-home assessments by a nurse practitioner and social worker team.
- Individualized care plans developed using GRACE protocols.
- Collaborative care planning with primary care physicians.
- Ongoing home-based care management and coordination.
- Weekly interdisciplinary team meetings including a geriatrician, pharmacist, and mental health liaison.

As an independent practitioner, the GRACE Nurse Practitioner exercises clinical judgment and autonomy in evaluating medical and functional statuses, planning treatments, and applying nursing ethics to complex geriatric care scenarios.
