Job description

Your Opportunity:

Be a part of a meaningful and innovative initiative aimed at providing high quality geriatric care in the tertiary emergency department at the Royal Alexandra Hospital (RAH) in Edmonton, Alberta. The Geriatric Emergency Management NP (GEM-NP), will provide specialized care to emergency patients with geriatric syndromes and frailty with moderate acuity and high complexity needs. As part of a physician-led team, the NP will conduct geriatric assessments, provide interventions, and develop care plans. The NP will collaborate extensively with the interdisciplinary team, community resources and patient caregivers to support discharges, and they will be responsible for following up patient status in the community. We are seeking Nurse Practitioners who have geriatric expertise that can adapt to the dynamic emergency environment. Experience in geriatric care is foundational to this role. The ideal candidate is resilient, forward-thinking and innovative, as they will be required to practice autonomously in a clinically challenging practice environment. Additionally, the ideal candidate will possess strong leadership and interprofessional collaboration skills to ensure safe, seamless coordination of care delivery. Centrally located in Edmonton’s downtown core, the RAH has one of the busiest emergency departments in Western Canada, serving a diverse population with complex medical and psychosocial needs. The RAH values the NP role, having successful integration in many departments and services. Take the next step in your NP career and be at the forefront of emergency care service delivery in Alberta!
