Director Trauma Program at PrismHR

Director, Trauma Program | Level II Trauma Center

Are you a strategic clinical leader with a passion for advancing trauma care? A leading acute care hospital in the Northwest Florida Region is seeking an operationally-focused Director of the Trauma Program to spearhead innovation and excellence in their Level II Trauma Center.

Reporting directly to the Chief Operating Officer (COO), you will serve as the organization's subject matter expert on trauma operations. This is an elite leadership role focused on high-level strategy, performance improvement, and clinical research oversight, ensuring the seamless delivery of life-saving care across the entire trauma continuum.

The Impact You’ll Make

As the Director, you will bridge the gap between clinical excellence and operational efficiency:

• Strategic Leadership: Develop processes to optimize financial performance and resource utilization while leading strategic planning for trauma patient care.
• Quality & Research: Design and oversee the trauma registry to drive performance improvement (PI) activities, clinical audits, and research initiatives.
• System Integration: Coordinate efforts between local and regional trauma systems to ensure the hospital remains a pillar of emergency care in the community.
• Compliance & Verification: Manage the critical verification and re-verification processes required to maintain the facility’s status as a premier Trauma Center.
• Operational Excellence: Conduct daily rounding with trauma teams and surgeons to address real-time operational issues and ensure a patient-centered environment.

Qualifications & Leadership Profile

We are looking for a highly communicative, operationally-minded leader who thrives on data and clinical precision.

• Experience: 5+ years of recent acute care Trauma Leadership (e.g., Trauma Program Manager or Coordinator).
• Licensure: Active Registered Nurse (RN) license.
• Education: Associate Degree required; Bachelor’s degree is strongly preferred.
• Certification: BCLS required within 30 days of hire.
• Scope: You will oversee 8 direct FTEs and the entire facility-wide trauma program. Note: This is an operational leadership role, not a traditional Nursing Director position.

Why Join This Organization?

This high-performing hospital is a hub for advanced specialty care, including stroke, cancer, and open-heart surgery, offering you a platform to influence a sophisticated clinical landscape.

A Comprehensive Total Rewards Package Includes:

• Financial Growth: 401(k) with employer match and an Employee Stock Purchase Plan.
• Education Support: Tuition assistance, certification support, and student loan repayment.
• Family First: Fertility, family building, and adoption assistance, plus paid family leave.
• Health & Wellness: Comprehensive medical (including behavioral health), dental, vision, and telemedicine services.
