Norton Children's Pediatric Protection Specialists, affiliated with the UofL School of Medicine, and a part of Norton Childrens Medical Group, is seeking multiple child abuse pediatricians to join our team. Our rapidly expanding team of professionals includes child abuse pediatricians, a social worker, four advanced practice providers, six nurses and administrative support staff. We evaluate children from across Kentucky and Southern Indiana who are suspected victims of child maltreatment. Through our fellowship accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME), our program has trained fellows who have gone on to provide care from Maine to South Dakota. Norton Childrens Pediatric Protection Specialists sees children at Norton Childrens Hospital, a freestanding tertiary and quarternary care facility, and we perform case reviews for children who are not seen in person.
Our child abuse pediatricians work in tandem with a nurse or nurse practitioner on all cases, with responsibility for evaluation, case management, on call, report writing and court testimony when needed. We embrace diversity and social justice in all we do. Our culture is warm, inclusive, friendly, determined and practical. Our team works closely together to best serve the needs of our patients, who are always our top priority.
"Our team focuses on keeping children safe and physically and mentally healthy. Our guiding principle is to always do what is best for our patient."
