PHILLY CALLING!
St. Christopher's Hospital for Children at Tower Health has an opening for a graduating pediatric resident to join our critical care fellowship program as PGY-4. St. Christopher's is a free standing children's hospital serving the community of Northeast Philadelphia. We are affiliated with Drexel University College of Medicine.
Our training program encompasses a Level One Pediatric Trauma Center, a Pediatric Burn Unit, and a nationally recognized ECMO service. In addition, our Section directs the Rapid Response Team, the Code Blue Team, the Procedural Sedation Team, the and high-fidelity Simulation Program. Our fellows get their CICU experience at CHOP currently. We have more than 2000 admissions per year in our 26-bed service, and we expect these numbers to grow over time.
The Critical Care service manages and directs the care of patients in the unit. The children are managed or co-managed by the pediatric intensivists and nurse practitioners collaboratively with other pediatric subspecialists and surgical services. We have attending pediatric intensivists in-house 24/7 who direct the care of these patients. Highly dedicated, experienced, and specialized nurses provide care to these patients with the assistance of a team of respiratory therapists, social workers, child life, occupational and physical therapists.
