Pediatric Hospitalist

Emerald Resource Group • White Plains, NY

9d • Onsite

About The Position

Children in the hospital need a physician who can decide, stabilize, and coordinate care when families are most afraid. This role owns the inpatient course—from first assessment through a safe discharge—so every child leaves clearer, safer, and ready for what comes next. You will set the clinical standard for a busy pediatric service and make the hospital a place families trust.

Requirements

• MD or DO with board certification or eligibility in Pediatrics.
• Active state medical license, or eligibility to obtain one before start.
• Current PALS and proven skill managing respiratory failure, sepsis, dehydration, and complex chronic disease in hospital.
• A record of running a census, writing clear plans, and handing off without loss of critical detail.
• Comfort teaching trainees or advanced practice clinicians and giving direct, respectful feedback.
• Eligibility for hospital privileges and medical staff membership.

Responsibilities

• Lead care for a defined pediatric census, delivering timely assessments and treatment plans that shorten stay without compromising safety.
• Stabilize acute deterioration and escalate promptly so critically ill children reach the right level of care within minutes.
• Own discharge readiness: reconcile medications, close follow-up gaps, and send families home with a plan they can carry out.
• Resolve same-day barriers with nursing, specialists, and case management before delays become harm.
• Document and hand off with precision so night teams and consultants can act without missed risk or rework.
• Coach residents or advanced practice clinicians until their independent decisions meet your standard of care.
• Review readmissions, safety events, and family experience, then change practice where the data shows delay or harm.
