Outstanding opportunity to be part of an established Palliative Care In-Patient team at a 200-bed community-based hospital with a busy Level 1 Trauma Center and Designated Primary Stroke Hospital. Being in one of the fastest growing areas of town conveniently located at the interchange of the 101 and I-17, the hospital is expanding to add an additional 100 beds by 2026. The in-patient setting spans sprawling suburban growth to the north and to inner city patients to the south. This creates a diverse and rewarding Palliative Care service.

The Deer Valley/Sonoran Crossing Palliative care team consists of Palliative Care Certified Nurse Practitioner, Palliative Care Certified Nurse, dedicated Palliative Care Social Worker, and Chaplain. This is a team model where each morning the team reviews the patient list which averages 20-25 patients and evaluates the daily needs of the patient and family to determine who is best suited to provide the consultative service on any given day.

Scottsdale/Phoenix, Arizona consistently ranks as one of the top places to live and raise a family. During the pandemic, the area ranked as one of the best places to live due to larger square foot residences, less vertical living, access to eat out dining, and ample open spaces to enjoy the scenic outdoors while maintaining recommended social distancing. City offers vast culinary, cultural, and shopping experiences. A dream for sports enthusiasts to partake in their own activity enjoy all four Professional Sports and National Playoff Title Games. The beauty of the mountains bordered with parks, lakes, expansive hiking, biking, golf courses, pedestrian, and equestrian trails, makes the area unique. As the fifth-largest metro area, traffic is minimal. Easy access to coastal California beaches and short drive to cooler higher-elevation ski mountains makes Arizona the best place to live
