Pediatric Intensivists
Children’s Nebraska, with the University of Nebraska College of Medicine, is currently recruiting BE/BC Pediatric Intensivists. As our organization continues to grow, so does our division. We’re looking to add additional intensivists to our existing team. The ideal candidate would have an interest in research and/or leading quality improvement projects. Post fellowship experience for 2 years or more preferred.
- The Pediatric Critical Care Medicine (PCCM) division supports a 32-bed Pediatric ICU as well as a 32-bed Cardiac Care Unit, including both Cardiac ICU and cardiac step-down patients. We have a full complement of pediatric medical and surgical subspecialties. The faculty also support an 8-bed PICU at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, which is home to one of the largest solid organ transplant programs in the country.
- Candidates must have a strong clinical background, with interest and experience in clinical or basic science research, and/or quality and safety initiatives. All faculty will be responsible for teaching medical students, residents, and fellows. The candidate will join the PCCM division with 23 existing pediatric intensivists and hold a faculty position at the University of Nebraska College of Medicine.
- The faculty are engaged in several areas of interest including transport, ECMO, palliative care, clinical and basic science research, and simulation. Research interests are strongly desired and supported. An intensivist-led sedation service is in the planning stages.
- This is a unique opportunity with unlimited potential to advance a strong clinical and academic career in Pediatric Critical Care. Candidates will have excellent verbal, written, and interpersonal communication skills. We seek individuals with strong emotional and social intelligence and a demonstrated ability to connect with others in a meaningful way at all levels of the organization and university.
