Nurse Practitioner | Hospitalist

Overview

The Nurse Practitioner (NP) will work as part of an interdisciplinary team, collaborating with Hospitalists, General Practitioners, and Nurse Practitioners to manage the care of a designated group of inpatients. The NP will be responsible for directing clinical care, engaging in both short-term and long-term planning in collaboration with the inter-professional team, and coordinating transitions of care. We are currently recruiting for 1.8 FTE positions.

A key focus will be the management of older adult patients admitted to the Hospitalist program, particularly those with sub-acute conditions and complex chronic care needs. Experience in managing behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia will be considered an asset. The NP is expected to work autonomously at a high level, while also consulting and making appropriate referrals to physicians and other members of the healthcare team as needed.
