This opportunity blends your passion for critical care with the variety of hospital medicine. You’ll care for patients across both services alongside a collaborative team of intensivists, hospitalists, and advanced practice providers.

The role at a glance

• Full-time, seven days on and seven days off, with 12-hour day shifts from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Part-time interest will also be considered.
• At least three years of critical care experience.
• Typically 2–4 ICU patients and up to 8 hospital medicine patients, with an average combined census of approximately 10 patients.
• Hospital medicine assignments adjusted according to ICU census and acuity.
• Annual salary range of $170,000–$175,000, depending on experience and benefits package.

Your clinical responsibilities

• Develop and implement treatment plans, monitor patient response, and communicate changes in condition to the appropriate physician and care team.
