Summary:
UNC Health Care is recruiting full-time Certified Child Life Specialists to join our UNC Children's Hospital team located on the beautiful campus of UNC Chapel Hill.
As a top-tier academic medical center, UNC Children's hospital upholds a four-tiered mission to "CARE," aligning clinical care, advocacy, research, and education to deliver world-class, family-centered care - always regardless of a family's ability to pay.
UNC Children's clinical home, N.C. Children's Hospital, is a major referral center for children with complex conditions and consistently recognized by U.S. News & World Report as one of "America's Best Children's Hospitals" on its annual list.
We are seeking a dynamic, motivated and team-oriented Child Life Specialist with excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to work on our pediatric sedation service with multidisciplinary providers and teammates in effective, collaborative practice.
Each of our Child Life Specialists has the opportunity to specialize in an area of interest, but also shares responsibility for meeting the needs of all demographics across our campus.
In addition to meeting the day-to-day coping and adjustment needs of pediatric patients and families, the Child Life Specialist teaches, supervises, and evaluates the work of volunteers and child life student interns.
The incumbent may also serve as a resource and an advocate on child development, family-centered care, multicultural awareness, and the impact of various health care experiences on pediatric patients and families.
This position is 40 hours, Monday through Friday, with rotating weekend and holiday requirements.
