- Serve as a clinical educator and mentor for residents, fellows, medical students, and multidisciplinary team members. 

- Participate in quality improvement projects and clinical research initiatives to enhance palliative care delivery and outcomes. 

- Provide consultation services across hospital units, outpatient clinics, and community-based settings as needed. 

- Contribute to the development and refinement of palliative care protocols, policies, and care pathways. 

- Engage in continuous professional development and maintain certification in palliative care medicine.

Requirements: 

- Board certification in Internal Medicine, Family Medicine, or a related specialty with additional certification or fellowship training in Palliative Care Medicine. 

- Minimum of 5+ years of clinical experience in palliative care, including direct patient care in diverse settings (inpatient, outpatient, home care). 

- Demonstrated expertise in symptom management, ethical decision-making, and end-of-life care. 

- Strong communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to engage patients and families during emotionally challenging situations. 

- Proven ability to work effectively within interdisciplinary teams and lead collaborative care initiatives. 

- Experience in teaching, mentoring, or clinical supervision is highly desirable. 

- Proficiency in electronic health records and clinical documentation systems. 

- Commitment to ongoing learning and adherence to professional standards and ethical guidelines.
