Interim Physicians

It’s NP Week 2024! ?? As we celebrate National Nurse Practitioner Week, the Interim Physicians team proudly highlights the dedication and impact of nurse practitioners nationwide. NP Week, supported by the American Association of Nurse Practitioners, honors the unique contributions of NPs who provide vital care and often serve as the primary providers in underserved communities. With more than 385,000 NPs seeing nearly one billion patients annually, they are central to addressing healthcare shortages, particularly in rural areas. They bridge gaps in coverage by blending compassionate care and clinical expertise. Interim Physicians is grateful for the hundreds of NPs we’ve had the privilege to place in locum tenens roles for more than four decades. Thank you for making healthcare accessible to those who need it most. We’re proud to work alongside you to provide healthcare where none would otherwise exist without you. #NPWeek #NursePractitioner #LocumTenens
