New Orleans, United States Ochsner Health Full time

Ochsner Health in New Orleans is seeking a Director of Neonatal Research BC/BE in Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine to join our expanding section of certified neonatologists.

Experienced Neonatologists with training or experience as a principle investigator for clinical trials or recent graduates with experience in clinical trials are invited to consider joining our division working alongside a team of experienced neonatal nurse practitioners. At Ochsner, we participate in several multi-center clinical trials and have the support of an in-house Clinical Trials Unit and dedicated NICU research nurse. We are the only hospital in Louisiana to provide both Level IV neonatal and obstetric care at the same facility, Ochsner Baptist Hospital.

Highlights:

Our state-of-the-art 67 bed, level IV NICU was constructed in 2015 and has private rooms for singleton patients as well as multiples. It is the hub for our system of 5 Ochsner NICU's in the New Orleans area. Annual deliveries are growing toward 4,000 and high-risk maternal patients are cared for by our large network of maternal-fetal medicine physicians. Our section of fetal echo is located at Ochsner Baptist Hospital and coordinates care of babies with complex congenital heart diseases. We serve the entire Gulf South region with an established ground and air neonatal transport system. All modes of respiratory support including HFJV and HFOV are available in addition to the use of inhaled nitric oxide. We are supported by one the longest standing ECMO programs in the country. Total body cooling is available for qualified infants. Our team participates in the Vermont Oxford Network, has continuous performance improvement initiatives underway and is ranked by the US News and World Report in three specialties. A full spectrum of pediatric medical and surgical subspecialty support is always available. We offer a competitive compensation package which is commensurate with experience.

Our comprehensive Pediatrics Program including primary care pediatricians and pediatric medical and surgical subspecialists (Ochsner Children’s™) represents over 230 physicians. The group is the region’s leading integrated provider of multispecialty care for newborns, infants, children, adolescents, and young adults. We offer a full range of pediatric complex specialty services including congenital heart surgery and cardiac transplantation, liver and bone marrow transplantation, a comprehensive surgical sub-specialty group, and the region’s only comprehensive multidisciplinary developmental center.

We recently announced the building of a new separate, comprehensive, dedicated Children’s Hospital on our main campus, with expected opening in 2027.

We currently care for patients in an expanding 67-bed Level IV Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, a 14-bed PICU, a 12-bed pediatric CV-ICU, and a 44-bed pediatric acute unit, with a dedicated pediatric emergency room, and full-time, region-wide in-house pediatric and neonatal transport teams.

In addition to patient care, Ochsner Children’s Hospital has an ACGME-accredited pediatric residency program and is responsible for teaching pediatric residents from the Tulane-Ochsner Pediatric Residency program as well as medical students from both Tulane and the University of Queensland. Ochsner Health and Xavier University of Louisiana recently announced an agreement to establish a joint College of Medicine.
