The APP will collaborate with senior medical and surgical residents and critical care fellows to care for this diverse patient population. Excellent communication is essential; patients are co-managed by a surgical subspecialty team. Additional opportunities include didactic education content, quality improvement projects, journal club, and research projects. Experience in Critical Care is required; completion of a Critical Care residency is preferred. The position is full-time, salaried, benefited, with day and night shifts and rotating weekend coverage. A faculty appointment at the level of Instructor through Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth will be requested.

The Dartmouth Health system spans New Hampshire and Vermont and offers a characteristic New England experience. The system includes the NCI-designated Dartmouth Cancer Center, the Children's Hospital at Dartmouth Health, four affiliated hospitals, and 30 ambulatory clinics.
