A Per Diem Perfusionist is a healthcare professional who operates heart-lung machines during surgeries on an as-needed basis. They provide temporary or supplemental support to hospitals and surgical teams, ensuring patients receive critical circulatory and respiratory support during procedures. This role offers flexibility in scheduling, making it ideal for perfusionists seeking additional work or varied experience.

This position requires flexibility, as shift lengths may vary depending on case complexity and surgical schedules. Responsibilities may also include equipment management, contributing to patient care plans, and participating in departmental meetings or training as needed. This structure is ideal for professionals seeking greater control over their work-life balance while still contributing essential expertise to patient care.
