Excellence

The cardiovascular surgery NP/PA hospitalists work collaboratively with the multidisciplinary team, including surgeons, critical care anesthesiologists, fellows, nurses, respiratory therapists, and others to provide 24/7 coverage managing high acuity patients in the CVS ICU. The inpatient role requires timely assessments, interventions, interpretation of diagnostic tests, and management of acute and chronic medical conditions. Patient and family education about recovery and disease process is also a crucial part of the health promotion for the patients.

Mayo Clinic is ranked among the Best Hospitals for heart care and heart surgery by U.S. News & World Report. The patient population that the NP/PAs manage includes adult CV surgical, heart/lung transplant, and device patients (VA/VV ECMO, RVAD/LVAD, IABP) located in the ICU. Working alongside talented surgeons and critical care anesthesiologists, this diverse patient population provides you the opportunity to hone your skills into a specialty area and promote continuous learning as you care for these high acuity patients. Shifts are 13-hour day/night rotation with every third weekend and 2 holidays per year. The ability to pick your own schedule allows for valued time off for personal pursuits, development, and life/work balance.
