Job Description
*Overview*
A well established, 10-person, private group in West Michigan is seeking to add an additional member to our practice. We provide 24-hour in-house coverage for the 108 bed Level IV NICU of Helen DeVos Children's Hospital in Grand Rapids. We offer a full range of services including high frequency oscillating ventilation, high frequency jet ventilation, iNO, ECMO, and therapeutic hypothermia as well as a full surgical program including complex neonatal cardiac surgery. All subspecialties are well covered. Over the last several years, we have had an average daily census of approximately 100. We have an active transport service staffed by 15 highly motivated NNP’s performing 350 transports per year. Support staff includes unit-base pharmacists, dedicated respiratory therapists, nutritionists, occupational therapy, physical therapy, and clinical laboratory. Clinical research is an integral part of our practice. We are members of The Vermont Oxford Network, the NIC/Q Collaborative, and the BPD Collaborative. We are the Michigan site for the March of Dimes NICU Family Support Project. Resident and medical student education is an expected part of the position. Michigan State University College of Human Medicine is located directly across the street from our hospital. The Grand Rapids Metro area is an excellent place to raise a family and offers convenient access to a wide range of outdoor activities. The city recently topped LinkedIn’s list of the 25 fastest-growing U.S. metro areas and was highlighted by The New York Times for its quality of life and affordability. The beautiful beaches of Lake Michigan are a short drive away. Our group prides itself on being hard-working, collaborative, and cohesive.
We offer a strong starting benefits package including a competitive salary, employer-funded retirement (25% of salary), health/disability/malpractice insurance, CME allowance, and moving expenses. We offer an escalating yearly salary along our three-year path to partnership without a buy-in. We cover neonatal services at a single hospital, eliminating the need to travel between multiple facilities.
