Physician Assistant or Nurse Practitioner - Cardiology

Advanced Practitioner Role Scope

The APP will be dividing their time between SNF setting and infusion/outpatient cardiology clinic. The infusion clinic involves assessment, follow up, instruction and collaboration with the community cardiologist for the necessity of intravenous diuresis, thereby reducing the need for hospitalization, improving QoL, adhering and implementing GDMT. The APP will not only be responsible for instituting a new infusion clinic needed across the central region outside of the current one established at HOCC, but also coverage of cardiac testing. The APP will play a vital role in filling the gaps and needs of our heart failure population, educating our patients and families lifestyle modifications, GDMT and providing an additional resource to the affiliated cardiology practices.

Shift

Full Time The hours split TBD by the needs of patient population. The APP is primarily in SNF setting.
