DENVER and BELLEVUE, Wash., Aug. 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Health eCareers, the online career hub for the healthcare industry, announced this week its new partnership with the Nurse Practitioner Healthcare Foundation (NPHF), whose mission is to improve health status and quality of care through innovations in nurse practitioner education, practice, research, health policy and philanthropy.

Job seekers now have a single access point for hundreds of nationwide job postings specifically for nurse practitioners. They can also upload a resume and sign up for job alerts to find out about new opportunities.

"Nurse practitioners trust the Nurse Practitioner Healthcare Foundation to provide them with important career resources," said Justin MacLean, Vice President of Innovation and Partnerships for Health eCareers. "Not only will this partnership enable NPHF to provide NPs with job opportunities, but it also enables Health eCareers to connect healthcare employers with the nurse practitioners they want to hire."

The Nurse Practitioner Healthcare Foundation's goals are to enhance nurse practitioner leadership in healthcare, promote access to high-quality healthcare, eliminate healthcare disparities, promote research opportunities to improve health outcomes and facilitate policy analysis to improve health outcomes and care delivery.

"The Nurse Practitioner Healthcare Foundation is delighted to announce our partnership with Health eCareers and the launch of NPHF CareerLink, a valuable resource for connecting nurse practitioners seeking relevant job opportunities and career advancement with potential employers," said Phyllis Zimmer, MN, FNP, FAANP, FAAN, President of the NPHF.

"From helping new graduates begin NP careers that support their personal and professional growth, to providing relevant, easy-to-find positions for mid-career NPs, this partnership will build a 'one-stop-shop' of available NP positions, information to assist in the job-seeking process and ongoing career support. We believe that through this partnership with Health eCareers, NPHF will be able to provide services and resources that will be of tremendous benefit to the nurse practitioner profession," Zimmer said.

All of Health eCareers' NP jobs will automatically appear on the NPHF CareerLink at no additional cost to Health eCareers' clients.
