Vascular Advanced Practitioner Role Scope

The Vascular Physician Assistant or Nurse Practitioner practices in an outpatient ambulatory setting, running parallel with an attending surgeon as well as running their own independent sessions. The advanced practice provider will have a high level of autonomy in managing complex vascular patients. They will be expected to maintain flexibility during busy office sessions. The AP will need to be able to recognize scenarios that would require escalation of care.

The AP will manage a patient panel for pre-op, post-op, and annual follow-up patients, as well as new consults. Patient conditions include, but are not limited to, carotid artery disease, aortic aneurysms, and lower extremity peripheral arterial disease. Additional responsibilities include wound care, following up on imaging, assisting with triage of new patients/emergency walk-ins, assisting nursing with clinical questions and concerns, wound checks, staple removal, and general vascular patient care. Practice locations include Hartford, Meriden, and Manchester.
