About the Role
We provide sexually transmitted infection testing to a client base primarily working in the adult film and sex work industries. We're looking for a licensed RN to join our clinical team to perform STI screening, testing, and and education in accordance with CDC STI treatment guidelines.
This role starts part-time and is expected to expand quickly — most providers who join us at 2 hours/day, 1–2 days/week are transitioning to full-time within 3–6 months as our client volume grows. The position is fully in-person.
Our clients deserve care that is clinically rigorous, judgment-free, and respectful of the nature of their work. This is a specialized practice area, and we're specifically seeking someone who already brings — or is genuinely excited to build — the mindset and communication style this population needs.
Responsibilities
- Perform clinician-collected swab STI testing (oral, vaginal, rectal, urethral as indicated) and oversee/interpret self-collected swab testing
- Collect STI panels (chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, HIV, herpes, trichomoniasis, hepatitis B/C, and others per protocol)
- Maintain accurate, confidential documentation in the EHR
- Conduct visits in-person onsite
- Collaborate with supervising NP and clinical team
- Help identify opportunities to improve intake, testing turnaround, and client experience as the practice scales
Who You Are
- Licensed RN in good standing, able to practice in Nevada
- Comfortable performing and reviewing STI screening via clinician-collected and self-collected swab methods
- Working knowledge of CDC STI treatment and screening guidelines
- Sex-positive and non-judgmental — genuinely comfortable discussing sex work, adult performance, non-monogamy, kink, and high-frequency testing needs without moralizing or making assumptions about clients' lives
- Trauma-informed in approach — skilled at creating a sense of safety and consent throughout exams, especially for clients who may have prior negative experiences with healthcare providers
- Discreet and rigorous about confidentiality, given the sensitivity of this client population
- Comfortable with both in-person exams and telehealth-based care delivery
- Reliable and flexible, with the ability to grow hours as demand increases
- Prior experience in sexual health, LGBTQ+ health, harm reduction, or adult industry-adjacent care is a strong plus, but not required if the mindset is right
Why This Role
- Direct, meaningful impact on a community that is frequently underserved or mistreated by traditional healthcare settings
- Clear growth path from part-time to full-time as the practice expands
- Flexibility to structure your contract as 1099 or W2 based on what works for you
- A clinical team and protocols that already center CDC guidelines, so you're supported rather than building this from scratch
- Competitive hourly compensation reflecting the specialized nature of this work
Pay: $41.35 - $49.79 per hour Work Location: In person
