Job Description

Shriners Children’s Chicago is seeking a dedicated and collaborative Pediatric Orthopedic Advanced Practice Provider (Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant) to join our team on a per diem basis. This role offers a unique blend of outpatient clinic care, inpatient support, and occasional operating room first assist responsibilities while working alongside a multidisciplinary pediatric orthopedic team committed to delivering exceptional patient care.

The APP will provide comprehensive outpatient management for pediatric orthopedic patients, caring for a wide range of conditions including fractures, scoliosis, kyphosis, complex spinal deformities, sports injuries, neuromuscular disorders, hip dysplasia, clubfoot, limb length discrepancies, developmental conditions, and other general pediatric orthopedic concerns.

This position is supported by an experienced team of orthopedic surgeons, nurses, cast technicians, and medical assistants, creating a highly collaborative environment with strong clinical resources.

This is a PRN (as-needed) position with flexible scheduling based on departmental needs and provider availability. Shifts are scheduled Monday through Friday only, with no nights, weekends, holidays, or call responsibilities. There are no guaranteed hours, and work opportunities may vary based on patient care needs.

  • Document clinical findings, treatment plans, and patient responses using the electronic health record (EHR).
  • Support quality improvement, patient safety, and research initiatives as appropriate to the role.
  • Provide mentorship or precepting to clinical staff or trainees as assigned.

  • Perform additional duties within the scope of licensure as assigned to support patient care and organizational goals.
  • Maintain all professional licensure, certifications, and mandatory training in compliance with state and organizational requirements.
  • Maintain accountability for meeting established productivity benchmarks (e.g. wRVUS), quality metrics, and institutional performance standards
  • Ensure time is allocated in accordance with assigned clinical, surgical, administrative, and academic expectations.
