Children’s Nebraska has an exciting opportunity to join our Nurse Practitioner Critical Care Transport team

Our Pediatric Nurse Practitioners work collaboratively with flight nurses and paramedics to provide state-of-the-art critical care to pediatric patients, utilizing fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters, and critical care ground ambulances throughout Nebraska and surrounding states. As a stand-alone transport team, we often operate in multiple states within a single shift. Transporting pediatric patients demands critical thinking and places personnel in diverse situations with unique logistical challenges. Are you up for the challenge?

As a free-standing hospital with over 75 years of service, we provide exceptional care to children nationwide, including our 52-bed Level 4 NICU. Our CAMTS-accredited transport team, comprised of NPs, Flight Nurses, Critical Care Paramedics, and Emergency Medical Technicians, works collaboratively to deliver outstanding patient care. We operate four ground ambulances and often utilize Children’s Hospital dedicated air assets such as an EC130 helicopter and a Pilatus PC-12 fixed-wing aircraft.

The Pediatric Nurse Practitioner Transport Provider is responsible for managing the care and transport of children from referring facilities. This role requires proficiency in flight and ambulance treatment modalities, altitude physiology, and emergency procedures. Utilizing an advanced nursing process, the provider will assess, diagnose, plan, implement, and evaluate patient care, while accurately documenting patient responses and outcomes.

This position requires proficiency in pediatric pathophysiology, assessment skills, emergency and critical care medical decision making, lab and radiology results interpretation, and procedural skills, including: intubation, surgical and needle cricothyrotomy, central and arterial line placement, finger and tube thoracostomy, UAC/UVC placement, intraosseous access, and lumbar puncture. In collaboration with physicians and referral teams, the provider must demonstrate strong leadership through nursing judgment, decision-making, and problem-solving abilities. As an advocate for patients and families, the provider must maintain professional conduct and communication. Additionally, knowledge of healthcare economics is necessary to ensure cost-effective resource utilization.

Children’s Nebraska Pediatric & Neonatal Transport team was awarded accreditation by The Commission on Accreditation of Medical Transport Systems on April 9, 2019.

We offer a comprehensive benefits package:

  • Competitive pay

  • Medical, dental, vision, health savings account and flexible spending accounts

  • 403(b) Retirement Plan
