Trauma & Surgical Practice

This is a high-volume Level I Trauma environment supporting both Trauma Surgery and Emergency General Surgery.

The ideal NP should already be comfortable managing high-acuity surgical patients and working within a busy STICU environment. This is not an entry-level trauma assignment—the clinical team is specifically seeking an experienced clinician capable of integrating into an established surgical service.

Patient encounters vary based on trauma volume and clinical activity.

Clinical Support

One of the strongest differentiators of this assignment is the depth of surgical and APP coverage.

Day Coverage

• 5 Surgeons
• 4 Additional APPs

Night Coverage

• 2 Surgeons
• 1 Additional APP

This model gives experienced APPs the opportunity to practice at a high clinical level while maintaining direct access to substantial surgical support.

Clinical Responsibilities

• Participate in the management of Trauma and Emergency General Surgery patients
• Provide inpatient care across the surgical service
• Evaluate and manage high-acuity trauma patients
• Participate in STICU patient management
• Perform clinical procedures within credentialed scope
• Coordinate care with Trauma and EGS surgeons
• Collaborate with fellow APPs, nursing, critical care, and ancillary teams
• Respond to changing patient acuity throughout the shift
• Complete clinical documentation within Epic
• Support continuity of care across the trauma and surgical service

Candidate Requirements

• Nurse Practitioner
• Appropriate Texas licensure and credentialing
• Recent Level I Trauma experience
• Recent STICU experience
• Trauma Surgery and/or Emergency General Surgery experience
• Current ATLS
• Comfortable managing high-acuity surgical patients
• Comfortable working 12-hour inpatient shifts
