Pediatrics
State-of-the-art pediatric care is accomplished in many different settings throughout the North Shore-LIJ Health System, and is the main focus of the Schneider Children's Hospital, a dedicated pediatric hospital noted among the finest in the country. Compassion of the highest regard, devotion to friendly and precise care and an understanding of what it means to treat the whole child and not just the illness comprise the mentality and ethics of our pediatric team.
The health system's nationally and internationally recognized pediatric programs include cardiology, cardiothoracic surgery, colorectal surgery, lung rescue, oncology and bone marrow transplantation. Our Pediatric Nurses work with parents, children and their healthcare practitioners as part of a dedicated team that provides for the special needs of young patients and their families. Administering care to patients experiencing everything from routine childhood illnesses, asthma attacks and orthopedic conditions to critically ill children, our nursing staff receives every opportunity to gain knowledge, apply their skills and advance their careers.
Whether you are a new graduate or an experienced Pediatric Nurse, we invite you to join our dynamic team of professionals. In addition, if you are interested in a career pathway in pediatric critical care or emergency nursing, our expansive fellowship programs can successfully foster your development in these specialties.
