PEM faculty are leaders of a variety of teaching activities within the Department and the AECOM community including: precepting clinical activities of residents and students, didactic teaching, running hands-on mock code workshops, and teaching PALS courses for the community practitioners, residents, and nurses. PEM faculty are also participating in exciting research and quality improvement initiatives.
Responsibilities include providing clinical care in the Pediatric Emergency Department, conducting telehealth consults to other Emergency Departments throughout the Montefiore Healthcare System in addition to supervising and teaching residents and medical students. We are looking for candidates who possess outstanding clinical and teaching skills and have research or ultrasound experience.
