Job Summary

About Us

Come reimagine care with us! We’re on a mission to change the way medical care is delivered around the country.

By providing home-based medical care to patients who need it most, WellBe is changing lives by delivering care wherever our patients call home. Our primary care services are provided by a team of licensed clinicians in the comfort of the patient’s home. By bringing together physicians, nurse practitioners, social workers, paramedics, and other healthcare professionals, WellBe delivers an extra level of support to patients in their communities.

The high-risk population we serve is often underserved and faces significant challenges accessing care. To address these barriers, we bring care to the patient rather than requiring the patient to come to us. WellBe’s clinician-led geriatric care teams provide concierge-level medical care and social support in the home while coordinating care across the entire continuum—from chronic and urgent care at home to hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, assisted living, palliative care, and end-of-life care.

Joining WellBe means becoming part of a growing, purpose-driven organization committed to delivering the highest quality care to our senior communities and making a meaningful impact every day.
