Bring Better to the Bedside as a Hospital Medicine Nocturnist Nurse Practitioner in Albuquerque, New Mexico at University of New Mexico Hospital We believe in bringing "better" to our local community in Albuquerque-better care, better collaboration, and a deep commitment to the people we serve. We'd love to talk if you're looking for a role that supports your professional growth and connection to a vibrant community. We are hiring for a nocturnist position. A nocturnist role requires working exclusively overnight shifts. Candidates must be comfortable with a nocturnal schedule and possess the ability to deliver exceptional patient care during nighttime hours. Local Team Collaboration: Join our well-established team of fourteen physicians and two nocturnist APPs at the University of New Mexico Hospital. Work alongside a unique group of clinicians with diverse geographic, educational, and training backgrounds. We work closely with our colleagues in other departments to ensure a seamless transition of care.

Graduate degree from an accredited nurse practitioner program.
Active NP license or eligible to become licensed in New Mexico.
Acute care certification required.

Key Responsibilities:

Provide high-quality, comprehensive medical and post-operative patient care.
Utilize Cerner EMR systems and Sound's internal informatics platform.
Support the rapid response team and attend codes as a courtesy run by the ICU team.
The hospital has a closed ICU, and our hospitalist team is not responsible for procedures.
Living and Working in Albuquerque:
Albuquerque isn't just where we work-it's where we live, raise our families, and embrace the unique charm of a city rich in culture and natural beauty.
From breathtaking views of the Sandia Mountains and vibrant annual events like the Balloon Fiesta to family-friendly neighborhoods, a thriving arts scene, and incredible New Mexican cuisine, Albuquerque offers something for everyone.

We value and support growth and development in our hospital medicine practice, allowing you to explore new opportunities locally and within the broader medical group.
We're a community-minded team, deeply committed to supporting community health and wellness within and outside the hospital. Our collective efforts make a meaningful impact in our community.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
