Responsibilities

Are you looking for a rewarding neonatology role that also supports a healthy work-life balance ? Nestled in the scenic Ozark Mountains and near multiple lakes, our practice offers the ideal blend of professional fulfillment and personal flexibility.

We are a well-established team of 4 neonatologists and 5 NNPs . We have a manageable Level III NICU ? a place where you'll care for a balanced-mix of patients without the high-volume burnout .

Whether you're looking for a full-time role or part-time flexibility , we invite you to consider joining our team. We are interested in finding an NNP for flexible coverage to support a model where the NNP provides replacement coverage for the backup neonatologist in a 6 to 8-hour daytime rounding shift, or 12 -hour nighttime in-house coverage to relieve the daytime NNP, or an occasional 24-hour shift to provide PTO coverage for an NNP.

Work Schedule (Full-Time) :

  • 7 in-house 24-hour shifts per month using a self-s cheduling model for maximum flexibility .

  • Routine C-sections are attended by charge and procedural nurses
  • Routine newborn care is handled by hospital-employed pediatricians
  • NICU transport (air and ground ) is supervised by the neonatologist with a team of transport NICU nurses / RT. Very rarely, an NNP may be requested to go by ground to assist the team.
