Pediatric Nurse

Job Description

Job Description

Is this you?
You became a nurse to make a profound difference. You thrive in high-acuity environments where your clinical judgment is constantly engaged, but you crave something the hospital floor can’t offer: The time actually to connect.

At Suma Home Care, we are looking for top-tier Pediatric Nurses who are ready to trade the chaos of the hospital for the calm of a child’s bedroom—without sacrificing clinical complexity.

Why work with Suma Home Care? The Best of Both Worlds.

We specialise in the most complex, technology-dependent pediatric cases in Pennsylvania. This isn't "babysitting"; this is intensive care, delivered in the place a child feels safest: home.

Here is what sets a career with Suma apart:

1. Work with Complex, Technology-Dependent Children
Our patients require the highest level of skill. If you have experience—or a burning desire to gain expertise—in Tracheostomy Care, Ventilator Management, and Seizure Disorders, this is your platform.

• The Clinical Challenge: You will manage ventilators, monitor respiratory status minute-by-minute, administer precise medication doses via G-Tubes, and perform skilled wound care for post-surgical patients.

• The Reward: You get to see a child blow out birthday candles, take their first steps post-injury, or smile because they are comfortable and safe. You are not just a nurse; you are the reason a family stays intact.

2. The "Suma Difference": Consistency & Collaboration

• Build Real Relationships: We believe children thrive on routine. Unlike the hospital, where you rotate constantly, we strive to provide consistent, reliable nurse assignments. You become a trusted member of the family, not a stranger in scrubs.

You Are Respected: At Suma, we practice true Family Collaboration. We know the parent is the expert on their child. You will work with them and their physicians to create a plan that fits the family’s lifestyle—not just a textbook. Our goal is to give families the peace of mind to focus on being parents, not just caregivers.

3. Provide True Peace of Mind
For the parents of our patients, every second is filled with worry. When you walk through the door, you aren't just taking a shift. You are lifting a massive weight off a mother’s or father’s shoulders. You are allowing them to be a parent to their other children, run errands, or get a full night’s sleep, knowing their medically fragile child is in expert hands.

Who You Will Care For

Our patients are children with incredible spirits facing significant challenges, including:

• Cerebral Palsy

• Muscular Dystrophy

• Traumatic Brain Injuries

• Genetic Disorders

• Complications of Prematurity

• Technology Dependence (Ventilator/Tracheostomy)

What You Bring to the Table

• Active RN or LPN license in the state of Pennsylvania.

• Pediatric experience is highly preferred. (New Grads with a strong med/surg clinical rotation and a passion for peds are encouraged to apply! We provide extensive training.

• Current CPR/BLS certification.

• A desire to work independently and utilise your critical thinking skills.

• A compassionate heart and a steady hand.

What We Offer (The Fine Print that Matters)

• Competitive Pay & Daily/Weekly Paychecks: We value your expertise.

• P.T.O

• Flexible Scheduling: We work with you to create a schedule that fits your life.

• One-on-One Patient Care: Focus on one patient, not a crowded floor.

• 24/7 Clinical Support: You are never alone. Our leadership team is always a phone call away.

• Paid Training & Orientation: We ensure you are fully confident with vents, trachs, and G-Tubes before you step into a patient’s home.
