Surgery - Critical Care Physician

We are looking to hire an advanced practice practitioner (APP) to serve full-time on a newly developing surgical intensive care team. This is an opportunity to provide critical care to surgical patients, as part of a new service line at CAMC Memorial. The typical census will include a variety of surgical patients including post-op and peri-op complex general and colorectal surgical patients. The service will expand to include vascular and thoracic surgical patients in coming months. The APP will work directly with a team of surgical intensivists to help develop and carry out management plans for these patients and perform various bedside ICU procedures. The APP will work closely with, but independent of, surgical residents and other trainees.

Job highlights include the opportunity to :

• Partake in the development of a new service line, from the ground up.
• Participate in the care of complex, critically ill surgical patients.
• Learn, perform, and teach bedside procedures, including placement of arterial catheters and central venous catheters, paracentesis, thoracentesis, and tube thoracostomy.
• Practice in a facility focused on medical education, working closely alongside surgical residents, medical students, pharmacy students, nursing students, and other trainees.
• Participate in development of practice management guidelines for use across the institution.
