The Division of Cardiology & Cardiovascular Medicine within the Pediatric and Adult Congenital Heart Center at Cleveland Clinic Children’s is seeking a Pediatric Cardiac Critical Care physician to join our existing group of 9 Cardiac Critical Care Physicians (7 with advanced training in Pediatric Cardiac Intensive Care) and 16 advanced practice providers caring for patients within our Pediatric Cardiac Intensive Care Unit (PCICU). The position will have a primary appointment in the Department of Heart, Vascular & Thoracic and a secondary appointment in the Division of Pediatric Critical Care in the Children’s Institute. The successful candidate will be either dual-boarded in pediatric cardiology and pediatric critical care medicine or will have completed a 4th year advanced pediatric cardiac critical care fellowship. Clinical activities of the department include direct patient care responsibilities and supervision of fellows, residents, and advanced practice providers. The 33-bed Cardiac Care Unit, which includes 15 Pediatric Cardiac ICU beds and 18 Cardiac Intermediate Care beds, cares for 750 admissions annually. The PCICU provides high quality, equitable, culturally responsive, family-centered care to critically ill infants, children, adolescents, and adults with congenital and acquired heart disease across the full spectrum of disease complexity. In addition to pre-and post-operative care, the PCICU provides comprehensive heart failure/transplant services, including mechanical support (ECMO and VAD), leveraging comprehensive ICU technologies (inhaled nitric oxide, renal replacement therapy, advanced physiologic displays, and predictive analytics). Our PCICU team also works closely with our advanced Fetal Care Center, with dedicated fetal care coordinators and a fetal surgery program, including fetal cardiac surgery.
In addition to clinical responsibilities, an interest in teaching and research is desirable with multiple opportunities for both. We have an active fellowship program with 9 trainees. Research is supported by the Cardiovascular Innovation Center for Pediatric and Adult Congenital Research, which has more than 30 research professionals supporting clinical and translational research in our Pediatric and Adult Congenital Heart Center. Cleveland Clinic Children’s physicians enjoy a collegial work environment within the framework of a large academic group practice, a competitive salary enhanced by a very attractive benefits package, and the opportunity to live in one of the nation’s great cities. A faculty appointment at a rank commensurate with experience will be with the Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine of Case Western Reserve University.
