Job Details

Cleveland Clinic is currently seeking innovative, adaptable and critical thinking Acute Care Nurse Practitioners who thrive in fast-paced environments to join a successful NP led team of Acute Care Nurse Practitioners in providing Emergency Response and ICU care throughout The Cleveland Clinic’s regional hospital system (Emergency response only at Main Campus).  Acute Care NP experience is preferred, however candidates with at least 3 years of Critical Care RN experience will be considered. Successful candidates will have a strong desire for autonomous practice and have the ability to function at the top of their license after training, fully integrating into a community hospital system where they have the ability to affect real change and improve patient outcomes with every interaction.  

AS A PROACTIVE APP, THIS PROVIDER’S WOULD NOT YET HAVE A HOME BASE AND THEY WOULD BE EXPECTED TO ROTATE TO MULTIPLE FACILITIES WITHIN A GEOGRAPHIC REGION AS NEEDED.  APPLICANTS WILL NEED TO BE FLEXIBLE WITH LOCATION ASSIGNMENTS.  SHOULD A NON-PROACTIVE HOUSE OFFICER POSITION BECOME AVAILABLE IN THAT GEOGRAPHIC REGION, THE PROACTIVE PROVIDER WILL HAVE FIRST CONSIDERATION TO STEP INTO THE PERMANENT LOCATION.

Not to be confused with a Hospitalist role, the Intensive Care and Resuscitation House Officer will oversee urgent and critical care of all patients within the regional hospital.  Other services can and will call for assistance when needed from the House Officer.

Coverage is 24/7 rotating day/night shifts including weekends and rotating holidays with the option for straight night-shift available with salary differential.

Duties include, but are not limited to:
•    Patient evaluations
•    Team Leader for Rapid Responses/Code Blues
•    Urgent patient management procedures (bedside echo, intubation, central line insertion, arterial line insertion, chest tube insertion and other procedures as necessitated by emergent situation)
•    Continual communication with other providers involved in care of admitted patients
•    Assist with admissions to ICU and subsequent critical care management
•    Other responsibilities as needed

All new-hires will go through an in-depth and fully paid 6 month orientation process that includes:

•    Dedicated didactic time with presentations on applicable topics provided by experts in their fields.
•    Multiple simulation days, progressive in nature, that provide real-life patient care scenarios in a safe environment for learning
•    Hands-on training for procedures in OR, IR and Cadaver Lab
•    Time spent at each regional site to learn workflows and patient management
•    Participation in a mentorship program (1 year in duration)
