Job Description

Physician assistants and nurse practitioners (NP PAs) in the division of Hospital Internal Medicine (HIM) work collaboratively with physicians and other NP PAs to provide high quality hospital-based care.

The HIM team is responsible for caring for a variety of clinically diverse and complex patients in a high acuity, dynamic and collaborative hospital setting. Our patient population consists of all areas of internal medicine with a focus in Hematology/Oncology and Transplant Medicine.

The HIM NP PA will partner with HIM physicians to assess, diagnose and treat patients and are responsible for patients in the Medical/Surgical and Progressive Care Units (PCU). The HIM NP PA completes admissions and consultations and is responsible for cross-cover of patients.

The HIM NP PA will work 12-hour shifts that are NIGHTS ONLY and include weekends and holidays.

The HIM team is dedicated to Mayo Clinic’s three shields: patient care, education and research and is seeking NP PAs interested in those areas, as well.

The HIM NP PA will demonstrate leadership through involvement on committees and team projects, education, and research and actively seeks to improve the practice through performance improvement initiatives.

Mayo Clinic Hospital is growing to meet the needs of patients in Arizona, and in turn, the division of HIM is expanding, as well. We are seeking to add high quality NP PAs dedicated to patient care and teaching to our team.

During the selection process you may participate in an OnDemand (pre-recorded) interview that you can complete at your convenience. During the OnDemand interview, a question will appear on your screen, and you will have time to consider each question before responding.

You will have the opportunity to re-record your answer to each question – Mayo Clinic will only see the final recording. The complete interview will be reviewed by a Mayo Clinic staff member and you will be notified of next steps.
