The Pediatric Cardiology team is seeking a Registered Nurse with a preferred background in pediatric cardiology to step into the role of Clinical Nurse Coordinator.

The Clinical Nurse Coordinator serves as a vital clinical link for patients with congenital and acquired heart conditions requiring specialized evaluation and long-term management.
