Location: University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, Ohio
Appointment Type: Faculty – [Rank dependent on qualifications]
Reports To: Director, Division of EMS
Position Summary
The Department of Emergency Medicine (EM) at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine is seeking a dedicated and academically focused physician to join as a faculty in the Division of EMS.
Our Division aims to promote exceptional prehospital care through research, education, and medical direction. Over the past decade, we have partnered with EMS agencies across the region for ground-breaking prehospital research in cardiac arrest, airway management, status epilepticus, pain management, blood resuscitation, and traumatic brain injury. Our large Simulation Center and Mobile Simulation Platform support EMS education throughout the region. We provide education in BLS and disaster management to medical students, and the residency’s longitudinal experiences in EMS include online medical control, HEMS, and assistance with medical direction. Our Fellowship in EMS Medicine was one of the first to be accredited by the ACGME and is approved for three fellows per year; our 30 graduates since accreditation have become medical directors of large systems, fellowship program directors, researchers, and EMS division/section directors across the country. Medical direction is the core of our work, and we support more than 30 EMS agencies, 9-1-1 dispatch centers, and special operations teams (SWAT, USAR, etc.) across the region. This breadth and depth of opportunity allows each EMS faculty member to focus on their personal areas of interest in a rich, collaborative environment. As a new faculty member, we will establish a professional development plan and mentorship teams needed to maximize your growth.
The Fellowship Program Director is supported by several core faculty who provide weekly didactic sessions and advanced opportunities for medical direction at suburban EMS agencies. The Assistant Program Director (APD) will contribute to curriculum development and refinement, fellow mentorship, recruitment, and educational innovation. The APD will lead the optional EMS elective for residents. The APD shares responsibility, along with the Program Director, for the oversight, administration, and management of the Fellowship in EMS Medicine training program with a goal of transitioning to the Program Director role when appropriate.
