Organization Description
As a federally qualified health center, NEPA Community Health Care has been serving the rural populations of northeastern Pennsylvania since 1983. We are proud to offer primary care, women's health, dental, psychiatry and behavioral health services within an integrated practice model across four locations in Lackawanna and Susquehanna counties.
When you work with a community health center, you’re joining a team that cares about you and makes a difference in the lives of those right here in our community. Our employees earn a living where their heart is, serving others and providing high quality, affordable healthcare – all while supporting their family, advancing their careers and receiving incredible benefits. In our family-first organization, you’ll never work nights, weekends or any major holidays. We may be close to home, but we’re far from ordinary!
