St. Francis Diagnostic Imaging Center, a high-volume, multi-modality outpatient facility within the Catholic Health system, is seeking a qualified Advanced Practice Provider (APP) — Nurse Practitioner (NP) or Physician Assistant (PA) — to provide on-site clinical support for contrast-related reactions and urgent patient care needs.
With a 35% increase in imaging volume over the past three years and growing complexity in patient care, this role is critical to ensuring safe, timely, and efficient management of contrast-enhanced studies (including CT and echocardiograms) and improving overall patient flow.
The APP will serve as the primary clinical responder for any contrast-related events, enabling radiologists to maintain diagnostic focus and supporting a high standard of care within the imaging center.

• National board certification (AANP/ANCC for NPs; NCCPA for PAs).
• Active BLS and ACLS certification.
• Minimum 3 years of clinical experience in acute care, emergency medicine, cardiology, or diagnostic imaging.
• Proficiency in IV medication administration and emergency response.

Nice To Haves

• Experience with contrast agents, including CT and Definity-enhanced echocardiography.
• Familiarity with managing contrast reactions and post-imaging follow-up care.
• Prior work in an outpatient diagnostic or procedural setting.

Responsibilities

• Act as the first-line clinical provider for all contrast-related reactions, including assessment, medication administration (e.g., epinephrine, antihistamines), IV access, and coordination of higher-level care or EMS transfer as needed.
• Support clinical operations across six imaging modalities: CT, Echo, MRI, Nuclear Medicine, Ultrasound, and X-ray.
• Collaborate with radiologists, technologists, and nursing staff to maintain safe and efficient patient flow throughout the day.
• Perform pre-procedure assessments and post-procedure monitoring for patients undergoing contrast studies.
• Educate patients on procedure expectations, risks, post-care instructions, and address concerns related to contrast agents.
• Accurately document all clinical interventions in the electronic medical record (EMR), ensuring compliance with Catholic Health policies and standards.
• Serve as a clinical liaison, helping to bridge communication between nursing staff, technologists, and radiologists.
• Participate in workflow optimization and safety initiatives to improve throughput and reduce exam delays or cancellations.
