Job Posting Description
At Boston Children’s Hospital, the quality of our care – and our inclusive hospital working environment – lies in the diversity of our people. With patients from local communities and 160 countries around the world, we’re committed to reflecting the spectrum of their cultures, while opening doors of opportunity for our team. Here, different talents pursue common goals. Voices are heard and ideas are shared. Join us, and discover how your unique contributions can change lives. Yours included.
We are seeking new graduate or early-career Nurse Practitioners (NPs) and Physician Assistants (PAs) to join our APP Clinical Immersion Program in the Acute Cardiac Care Unit (ACCU).

APPs will function as active members of the clinical team while continuing didactic education and skill-building in a supportive, collaborative environment. At the conclusion of the program, participants will transition into permanent APP roles within the department, based on availability. This program is ideal for motivated APPs seeking a career in inpatient pediatric cardiology, advanced cardiac therapies (heart failure, heart transplant, ventricular assist devices), and complex medical care in a world-renowned academic children’s hospital. Anticipated start date of January 2026.
