Advanced Practice Provider-Pediatric Critical Care

Job Description:

Join a nationally recognized pediatric health system where your expertise truly shapes the future of critical care. At Intermountain Health, our mission—helping people live the healthiest lives possible—guides everything we do.

As a valued Advanced Practice Provider on our Pediatric Critical Care team, you’ll play a central role in delivering world‑class care to the most complex and critically ill children across the Intermountain West.
 

About the Role

Step into a high‑acuity environment where your advanced skills are not only utilized but celebrated. As a Pediatric Critical Care APP with us, you’ll care for patients from newborn through young adulthood in our Pediatric Intensive Care Unit at Primary Children’s Hospital Salt Lake City and Lehi, Utah campuses.
 

As the region’s premier quaternary referral center, we treat a remarkable breadth of pathology—often receiving patients from as far away as Alaska. You’ll work shoulder‑to‑shoulder with a collaborative team of intensivists, surgeons, and multidisciplinary specialists, practicing at the top of your license. Your scope includes:

• Leading and implementing care plans
• Performing high‑acuity procedures (ECMO, intubations, chest tubes, mechanical circulatory support device placement, and more)
• Managing complex, rapidly evolving clinical situations

Our 24/7 unit offers a rotating schedule of 12‑hour shifts (days, nights, weekends, holidays). During respiratory season, additional shifts and supplemental income may be available. Evening, night, weekend, holiday, and extra‑shift differentials range from 10–50%. Relocation assistance is available.
 

How we'll support you:

We care about your well-being, which is why we provide our caregivers a generous benefits package. Including paid time off, license reimbursement, malpractice insurance coverage, and an annual CME allowance to support your continuous growth and development.  Learn more about our comprehensive benefits package here.
 

What you’ll bring:

• Certification as a Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant.

• Utah State Controlled Substance License.
