Nurse Practitioner
Your Opportunity:
The PLC ICU is a 22-bed multisystem unit recruiting a Nurse Practitioner to join its multidisciplinary critical care team. This role provides frontline ICU care, including inpatient management, consults, and outreach/Code 66 responses across the site. While PLC is the primary site, there may be opportunities for cross-coverage in other adult ICUs in Calgary. Reporting to the Executive Director of Critical Care, the Nurse Practitioner will manage patients admitted to the ICU and work collaboratively with intensivists, physicians, nursing staff, allied health professionals, subspecialists, and site leadership to ensure safe, seamless transitions of care. The NP will provide comprehensive, patient- and family-centred care through advanced clinical practice, consultation, education, leadership, research, and quality improvement initiatives. Strong communication, critical thinking, collaboration, and leadership skills are essential, along with a passion for caring for medically complex patients and their families. Important Work Structure Note: The ICU environment is a hybrid model, with the Nurse Practitioner working collaboratively with intensivists and a variable number of residents. This role will gradually evolve to include a limited number of nighttime shifts in the coming months.
Description:
As a Nurse Practitioner (NP), you will provide a full range of comprehensive health services to individuals across their lifespan. You will be responsible for integrating clinical skills associated with nursing and medicine to assess, diagnose, order, and interpret diagnostic tests, prescribe treatment, and perform procedures to manage and meet the health needs of patients.
