Complete Description:
16-bed acuity-adaptable Pediatric Cardiac Care Center caring for critically ill pediatric congenital cardiac patients.

Advanced Practice Providers serve in a primary covering
provider role and should be comfortable managing patients with congenital heart
disease, including complex anatomy and physiology, in a fast-paced,
multidisciplinary environment.


The APP team cares for a wide range of high-acuity patients
including pre- and post-operative pediatric cardiac surgical patients,
high-risk single ventricle physiology, open chest management, arrhythmia
management, vasopressor support, external and internal pacemakers, VA/VV ECMO,
and CRRT.


While knowledge of ICU procedural skills is essential, the
APP role is not primarily procedural. Our unit also occasionally provides care
for adult patients with congenital heart disease requiring medical or
post-operative management, as well as PICU boarder patients with a variety of
critical care needs.


The ideal candidate is adaptable, collaborative, and thrives
in a dynamic critical care setting alongside physicians, nurses, respiratory
therapists, pharmacists, and other multidisciplinary team members.

Must Haves:

2 years of experience in Pediatric Cardiac ICU as
APP

Knowledge of complex cardiac anatomy and
physiology

Require a Master's degree as a Nurse
Practitioner, an active New York State Registered Nurse license in good
standing, an active New York State Nurse Practitioner licensure in good
standing and current national certification as an Nurse Practitioner.
