Emergency Medicine Physician Sought!
One full-time physician needed for 140-bed community hospital; not a trauma center. Must be ER trained and boarded, or other boards with ER experience. The ED has 50 hours of physician coverage daily plus 10 hours of mid-level coverage, caring for more than 46,000 patient visits annually. We work a combination of 8, 9, 10 and 12-hour shifts, use the electronic T-system documentation and evaluate approximately 75% of our patients within 30 minutes of their arrival. A full-time night physician is already in place, so night shifts are minimal. There is flexible scheduling among all of the collegial staff. Physicians are employed by the hospital and offered $135/hr + 6 weeks paid time off and $4,000 annually for approved CME activities. Malpractice and license fees are also paid by the hospital. In addition, full medical and dental benefits are offered and the 403(b) and 457(b) plans are available. The emergency department has a dedicated digital radiography suite, Zonare ultrasound, and GlideScope. Nearly all medical and surgical specialties are available and on call. A LifeFlight helicopter is based on-site to facilitate emergent transfers to tertiary care. Press Ganey patient satisfaction in the ER is 95+ percentile.
