Advanced Practice Provider Pediatric Cardiac Critical Care

When you join us, you’ll become a part of a nationally recognized health system dedicated to our mission of “helping people live the healthiest lives possible.”
 

About this role: 

This APP will join our interdisciplinary Pediatric Critical Care team within the Heart Center at Primary Children's Hospital in Salt Lake City, Utah, with a focus on serving patients in our Cardiovascular Intensive Care Unit.

Our Critical Care APPs care for pediatric patients (newborn to early adulthood) in our pediatric intensive care and cardiovascular intensive care units. As the quaternary care center for pediatric care in the Intermountain West, we see a wide variety of the most severely ill and injured patients, with referrals reaching us often from as far away as Anchorage, Alaska. Our APPs work in a collaborative nature with physicians and multidisciplinary teams, while having opportunity to work at the top of their scope of licensure - participating in formulation of plans of care, conducting procedures such as insertion of endotracheal and chest tubes and management of ECMO and mechanical circulatory support devices in this critical care environment.

As we provide care 24/7, this APP will be asked to work a full time rotating schedule including day, night, weekend, and holiday shifts averaging 3 12-hour shifts per week. During respiratory season, additional shifts may be available to the provider, dependent on patient volumes and department needs.
