Attention Pediatric Hospitalists!!
Do you love hanging out with some of the most fun Pediatric Hospitalists all across the US? Are you interested in a national leadership opportunity? Then submit your application to be a new member of the Society of Hospital Medicine’s Pediatrics Special Interest Group (SIG) Leadership!
We are looking for 5 individuals to join us for a 3-year term to start in April of 2025. Members of the Pediatrics SIG Leadership help plan the pediatrics track for SHM Converge, represent SHM on the PHM planning committee as well as the Consortium of PHM (CPHM), engage overall SHM members in approximately 3-4 open call/webinars throughout the year, assist with promotion letter writer database management, write editorials for The Hospitalist, work on the Choosing Wisely campaign, and much more.
What are the Pediatrics SIG Leadership member duties?
· Participate in monthly SIG leadership conference calls (typically the afternoon of second Tuesdays of the month- however some months have used an alternate of a Thursday afternoon)
· Attend the SHM Annual Meeting (not an absolute requirement but strongly encouraged) – SHM Converge 25 will be held Las Vegas, April 22 - 25
· Participate in at least one initiative each year.
How long is the term? Three years, and re-election is possible once for a maximum of six years of service on the SIG Leadership. Qualifications: Must be a SHM member in good standing for at least a year and must be a practicing Pediatric Hospitalist for at least three years

Candidates will be selected based on diversity of experience and clinical practice setting, motivation, and prior committee experience.

Our goal is to continue to foster broad pediatric hospital medicine representation with regard to practice setting, geography, and member diversity.
Applications will be reviewed and voted on by members of the current Pediatric SIG Leadership.
