Advanced Practice Provider Neonatology

Intermountain Health

9d•$63 - $97

About The Position

As a Neonatal Advanced Practice Provider, you will work with a team of healthcare professionals to provide quality care and an excellent patient experience. As part of the Neonatology Team, you will manage critically ill and premature infants in the NICU with complex health issues, including resuscitation, assessment, diagnosis, medication management, ventilation management, treatment, and timely documentation. You will participate in daily rounding with the interdisciplinary medical team and support pre- and post-operative patients with cardiac, neurological, and other surgical needs. The anticipated first 1–2 years of practice will be on campus at Primary Children’s Hospital in Salt Lake City, a level IV NICU. Once fully oriented, you may also provide care at Primary Children’s Hospital in Lehi, a level III surgical NICU. Attending deliveries is unlikely because neither campus has a Labor & Delivery unit; patients are received via referral from other facilities. The full-time schedule consists of three 12-hour shifts per week, plus four additional hours allotted for training, meetings, documentation, and related activities. Part-time employment opportunities may also be discussed. The position offers up to $7,500 in relocation assistance and up to $12,000 in student loan assistance when applicable.
