Temple Health is currently recruiting for Advanced Practice Provider-Nurse Practitioners for full-time outpatient opportunities in Pulmonary Critical Care / Sleep Medicine at our Main Campus, Chestnut Hill Hospital and Oaks, Pennsylvania locations. Qualified candidates will be certified (AANC, AANP, or PANC) and licensed, or eligible, in the state of Pennsylvania. Experience in pulmonary as an RN or NP is preferred.
The Department of Thoracic Medicine and Surgery is comprised of physicians and scientists from a variety of disciplines focused on the treatment of lung disease including pulmonary and critical care medicine, allergy, thoracic surgery, lung transplant surgery, sleep medicine, diagnostic imaging and interventional thoracic radiology, pulmonary pathology and clinical and scientific research and medical education. This unique multi-disciplinary center provides synergy for cutting edge therapies and novel basic and clinical research and educational activities that span the continuum of medical and surgical care of patients with common to rare lung disorders.
Temple is already a leader in the United States for lung transplantation, acute and chronic care of pulmonary diseases, clinical and scientific research, and medical education. The collaborative atmosphere created by the new department bolsters Temple's already strong pulmonary clinical trials program, including research into the causes of and therapies for COPD, emphysema, alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency, asthma, lung cancer, pulmonary hypertension, sarcoidosis, pulmonary fibrosis and sleep apnea.
We treat more than 50,000 patients, of which approximately one-half are cared for on an outpatient basis. Temple's pulmonary services extend beyond Temple University Hospital to also cover Temple University Hospital - Jeanes Campus and the Temple Health Oaks outpatient center. Across the health system, Temple physicians perform approximately 1,000 invasive pulmonary procedures per year. Volume continues to grow with regard to the higher-end, more specialized procedures including endobronchial ultrasound and navigational bronchoscopy. Bronchial thermoplasty has also been added to the repertoire of interventional therapeutics performed by the pulmonary procedures service. Interventional Radiology is a key partner in this component, working alongside our pulmonary interventionalists to provide consistent and simultaneous services from consultations to highly complex care.
