Role Overviews & What Success Looks Like
1) Consultant Neurology
As Consultant Neurology at a high-volume cardiac institute, you will anchor neurological care across cardiac ICUs, CCUs, cath labs, and stroke services:
- Lead acute stroke pathways: triage, NIHSS scoring, thrombolysis/thrombectomy coordination, and door-to-needle time reduction.
- Provide consults for neurological complications of cardiac procedures (peri-procedural stroke, seizures, hypoxic brain injury, ICU delirium, neuropathies).
- Oversee neuro-diagnostics liaison (EEG, EMG/NCS) and guide imaging protocols with radiology.
- Mentor Senior Registrars/Residents; conduct M&M meetings and journal clubs.
- Drive clinical audits, stroke registries, and quality indicators in collaboration with cardiology, anesthesia, and ICU teams.
Who thrives here: Neurologists who enjoy fast decision-making, cross-disciplinary teamwork, and building evidence-based pathways inside a tertiary cardiac center.
2) Senior Registrar (Critical Care)
You will be part of the heart of critical care at NICVD—supporting cardiac surgery, interventional cardiology, and emergency units:
- Run ICU rounds, optimize ventilation strategies (invasive/NIV/HFNC), sedation/analgesia, hemodynamics, and fluid balance for cardiac and non-cardiac cases.
- Perform and supervise procedures: arterial lines, central venous access, bedside ultrasound, airway management under supervision, and emergency response (CPR/ACLS).
- Implement bundles that reduce HAP/VAP/CLABSI and pressure injury rates; champion antimicrobial stewardship with ID and pharmacy.
- Teach residents and RT teams; contribute to protocol writing and simulation drills (code blue, difficult airway).
- Ensure meticulous documentation, handovers, and policy compliance.
The ideal profile: FCPS/MD/Equivalent in Anesthesia/Medicine/Critical Care who values structured care, outcomes tracking, and team leadership during off-hours.
3) Respiratory Therapist
Respiratory Therapists at NICVD are integral to ICU and ED performance:
- Manage ventilator setups, daily weaning assessments, NIV titration, HFNC use, and airway clearance (nebulization, CPT).
- Conduct ABG sampling/analysis, interpret trends, and communicate adjustments to medical teams.
- Ensure IPC adherence: circuit care, humidification checks, filter changes, and equipment disinfection.
- Educate patients and families on inhaler techniques, oxygen safety, and post-discharge respiratory plans.
- Maintain equipment logs, coordinate with biomedical engineering, and support rapid response calls.
A strong RT brings calm execution during surges, accurate documentation, and a collaborative approach with nurses and physicians.
