This is a unique opportunity for pediatricians with a gap year or those considering a Neonatology Fellowship to practice in the NICU setting while expanding their clinical skills. Hospitalist physicians provide direct care to neonatal patients admitted to our state-of-the-art Level IV NICU. They work in conjunction with the attending neonatologist physician providing the patient’s day to day care and management of complex and acutely ill patients. Hospitalist physicians work in the context of a multidisciplinary team, in collaboration with a large group of Neonatal Nurse Practitioners. They have additional opportunities to participate in educational and quality improvement projects within the NICU.
Work schedules include day and night shifts in addition to weekend and holiday rotations. They work on average 3 (12 hour) shifts per week which provides for excellent work/life balance.
