Certified Nurse Midwife - Per Diem

About the role

At Vancouver Clinic, caring for people is our first priority and the driving force behind everything we do. New clinicians will find a collegial, supportive, and caring environment of healthcare professionals committed to our patients and community. Our multispecialty clinic is physician owned, which prioritizes the highest quality patient care and a strong work-life balance.

We are seeking a per diem, hospital-based Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM) to join our dynamic and growing team. Our department includes 15 midwives dedicated to providing high-quality, patient-centered care to a diverse community within the hospital setting, with a strong emphasis on midwifery-led care and continuity for our patients.

Vancouver Clinic CNMs serve as primary providers for low- to moderate-risk patients while collaborating closely with physician colleagues when higher-acuity care is needed within a collaborative, multidisciplinary group of 20 OB/GYN physicians, 3 Maternal-Fetal Medicine specialists, and 6 Advanced Practice Clinicians, all committed to delivering comprehensive and personalized care.

Our midwives deliver at both local hospitals - PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center and Legacy Salmon Creek Medical Center, where they provide full-scope inpatient care. Responsibilities include supporting physiologic birth, attending water births, managing VBACs, and participating in cesarean sections for midwifery patients as part of an integrated care team. This role does not have an outpatient clinical component.

• A minimum one year of clinical experience including inpatient care as a midwife is required
• This is a per-diem/as needed position with no guaranteed minimum number of shifts, hours, or compensation.
• Availability to work at least 1 shift/month preferred (with more shifts typically available)
• Schedule includes 12- and 24-hour shifts
• $900 per 12-hour shift
• Opportunity to move into full- or part-time position, if desired
• Broad scope of practice due to our strong relationship with MFM
• Compensation information is provided based on available data at the time of posting and is subject to change.

We are rooted in Southwest Washington, located in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. The area offers a variety of housing options from suburban neighborhoods, downtown high rises, or rural locations with acreage. We enjoy year-round recreational opportunities, a flourishing craft brewery scene, wineries, and tasty restaurants. Portland, Oregon, is nearby offering world-class food, a vibrant art and theater scene, and numerous professional sports teams. Plus, if you live and work in Washington, there is no state income tax.

We recognize that each person's unique experience, identity, and perspective advances our ability to deliver the best possible care to our patients. We encourage candidates of every background to apply to join our team.
