Provider With Focus in Geriatrics Joins Highland Physicians Staff 

Honesdale, PA (October 21, 2025) — Adult-Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner Scott Tiberi has joined the staff of Wayne Memorial Community Health Centers’ (WMCHC) largest primary care office — the Highland Physicians Family Health Center. Tiberi sees patients from age 18 and up at the 1839 Fair Avenue location. However, his qualifications and clinical experience as an AGPCNP, will particularly benefit the practice’s geriatric population.

Tiberi described WMCHC as “a well-known expanding organization that focuses on the overall well-being of the community it services along with their employees” which made him decide to further his career with the health centers.

Tiberi’s healthcare career spans over 12 years. He began working as an EMT/Paramedic for six years before attending nursing school. His nursing experience includes six years as an CVICU RN, specializing in cardiovascular disease, heart failure and open-heart surgery. He is also a certified critical-care registered nurse along with an additional cardiac medicine certification (CCRN-CMC). Tiberi served in these roles at local facilities such as CHS-Regional Hospital of Scranton and Lehigh Valley Health Network-Cedar Crest.

He holds a Master of Science degree in Nursing from Maryville University, Saint Louis, MO and Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing from Chamberlain University, Downers Grove, IL. After completing requirements for the AGPCNP program, Tiberi has set his sights on transitioning from inpatient to outpatient primary care as an advanced care practitioner at WMCHC.

“As an AGPCNP, my overall goal is to optimize the geriatric population’s health and functionality while simultaneously trying to reduce the amount of patient hospitalizations,” stated Tiberi.
