Are you looking for a role in a company that's solving one of the greatest challenges of our lifetime? Ophelia helps people end their opioid use and restore their quality of life with respect for their time and dignity. Our mission is to make evidence-based treatments for opioid use disorder (OUD) accessible to everyone... and we're looking to bring more people onto our team to help us achieve it. Ophelia is a venture-backed, healthcare startup that helps individuals with OUD by providing FDA-approved medication and clinical care through a telehealth platform. Our approach is discreet, convenient, and affordable. We've been successfully operating in 14 states for almost four years and we're excited to continue our growth. We are a team of physicians, scientists, entrepreneurs, researchers and White House advisors, backed by leading technology and healthcare investors working to re-imagine and re-build OUD treatment in America.

Clinicians are a critical part of our care team at Ophelia. As an Advanced Practice Practitioner, you will provide clinical care to patients receiving medication for opioid use disorder and a narrow suite of mental health conditions (depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc…).

Our Clinicians offer compassionate, non-stigmatizing support for patients, act as a liaison and advocate for them, and ensure patients receive appropriate care as their needs evolve. Depending on role type, clinicians conduct Intake visits and/or follow-up visits, and work within a team-based approach model of care to deliver high quality care to our patients. We have multiple different clinical role types depending on your experience with MOUD, and through our team-based model of care we provide a strong support system to ensure that you and our patients feel comfortable and supported.
