What You Would Actually Do

This is a standard outpatient Urgent Care role. You will be seeing patients of all ages (pediatrics to geriatrics) for non-life-threatening injuries and illnesses.

  • Patient Volume: Expect a fast-paced environment. Urgent cares in this area typically see a steady flow of patients with flu, minor fractures, lacerations, and infections.
  • Procedures: You should be comfortable with suturing, splinting, and reading basic X-rays.
  • Autonomy: While there is likely a supervising physician available (either on-site or remote), you need to be confident working independently.

Why Is This a Good Job?

  • The Location: Rocklin is a great spot—safe, family-friendly, and close to both Sacramento and the Sierra Nevada mountains.
  • The Pay: The posted range of $115k – $158k is competitive for the Sacramento metro area, especially for a permanent placement.
  • Agency Benefits: Since you are going through KPG, they often assist with the negotiation process. They typically offer medical, dental, and vision insurance, plus 401(k) options and malpractice coverage.

Do You Qualify?

They are looking for licensed providers who are ready to hit the ground running.

The Requirements:

  1. License: Active California State License (NP or PA).
  2. Certification: Board Certified (AANP/ANCC for NPs, NCCPA for PAs).
  3. Experience: They typically prefer providers with at least 1 year of experience in Urgent Care or Emergency Medicine. New grads are sometimes considered if they have strong clinical rotations, but experienced providers are preferred for these standalone clinics.
  4. DEA: You must have a valid DEA registration to prescribe medication.

How to Apply

Since this is an agency listing, you apply to the recruiter first, not the clinic directly.

  1. Click the Link: Go to the KPG Healthcare Job Listing.
  2. Submit Profile: You will need to upload your CV.
  3. The Interview: A KPG recruiter will screen you first. Be prepared to talk about your “patients per hour” comfort level and your procedure skills (suturing, I&D, etc.).

Pro-Tip: If you apply, ask the recruiter specifically about the schedule structure. Is it 3x12s (three 12-hour shifts) or 4x10s? That makes a huge difference in your work-life balance.

Good luck!
