The Destin area is home to pristine white-sand beaches that are consistently rated among the top in the U.S. There are abundant opportunities for boating, fishing, and water activities in both fresh and saltwater. The schools in the region are also among the top rated in Florida.

 

In Andalusia we are searching for someone to join a well established single provider practice.  The clinic sees about 20-25 patients per day and performs about 250 infusions per month.  This position would be Monday- Friday, 8am - 5pm with no Call and minimal hospital rounding (handful of patients per week).  We also have a full-time APRN who does shared visits with the provider and also sees non-chemo infusion patients for the community providers. The chemo nurses are chemo certified and our pharmacy meets USP 797/800 guidelines.  We have a full time pharmacist and pharmacy tech on staff as well.  

The town of Andalusia is located in Covington County, where the population is ~37,000.  It is a wonderful community to live and raise children.  Country Living Magazine has named Andalusia one of the 30 best small towns in the United States for Christmas, and Reader's Digest ranked Andalusia number 5 out of 52 Christmas towns in America. The arts are also abounding in Andalusia. There are dance schools, and professional performances of ballet and modern dance. Several local dancers are now performing in professional companies including the New York City Ballet. The Covington ARTS council brings theater and musical performances to the local stage several times a year. Andalusia offers a great quality of life; our County is blessed with natural resources-from Conecuh National forest: lakes such as Gantt, Point A, Frank Jackson and Lake Jackson: to thousands of acres of forested hunting lands. And we offer camping, trails, water skiing, and boating-activities that are attractive to people of all ages. Our city also has 2 well maintained golf courses and an airport. We are also only an hour drive from the beautiful beaches of the Florida Gulf Coast!
