Hospitalist - Physician - (Hospital Medicine) Locum Tenens
StartDate: ASAP Available Shifts: 24 Hour On-Call
Hospitalist needed for an acute care facility in Colorado. The hospitalist will work seven 24 hour shifts per month on an ongoing basis.

There will be approximately 15 patients per day and possibly 20 on an occasional busier day. The daily schedule is Saturday 7:30am to Saturday 8:00am with rounding until noon with very little call after that. (2-3 on average). There will be no rounding on Saturday and Sunday and the Hospitalist will typically be rounding on the same patients daily.

Simple sutures may be required, but procedures are very rare as they are referred to a local hospital. Charting is handwritten and very efficient. Please call StaffCare for additional details.
A hospitalist (locum tenens) is a physician that is generally Internal Medicine residency trained but can be from Family Medicine or other sub-specialty programs. They specialize in the care of patients who have been admitted into a hospital. These general medicine professionals perform a variety of roles in the hospital and, accordingly, must be familiar with the entirety of human physiology and a wide range of illnesses and medical conditions. Hospitalists complete residencies in internal medicine, much like primary care physicians. When patients arrive to the hospital, a hospitalist will take care of them, prescribing treatment as needed, before referring them to a specialist or discharging them from the facility.
