We believe in bringing “better” to our local community in Adrian —better care, better collaboration, and a deep commitment to the people we serve. We’d love to talk if you’re looking for a role that supports your professional growth and connection to a vibrant community.

We are hiring for a Nocturnist position. A Nocturnist role requires working exclusively overnight shifts. Candidates must be comfortable with a nocturnal schedule and possess the ability to deliver exceptional patient care during nighttime hours.

People First in Adrian

Local Team Collaboration:

• Join our hospital medicine team of five physicians and four advanced practice providers with the support of a clinical performance nurse at ProMedica Charles and Virginia Hickman Hospital.
• Our hospital medicine team routinely participates in hospital committees, including the medical executive committee, quality care council, pharmacy and therapeutics, and infection prevention and control, among many other hospital groups and ad hoc committees.
• We have diverse backgrounds, and our hospitalists engage in various activities outside of hospital work, including travel, hiking, hunting, and volunteering. We regularly have informal team lunches at the hospital to continue to remain connected with each other. Our environment is highly collaborative and supportive.

Qualifications:

• Acute care physician assistant; hospital medicine experience is strongly preferred.

Practice in the Heart of the Community

Scheduling:

• Our day team comprises two physicians, one ICU hospitalist, one non-ICU hospitalist, and an advanced practice provider. An advanced practice provider manages our nocturnist service, and telemedicine is a backup for managing the intensive care unit.
• We have team meetings usually once a month, but we also have informal/impromptu meetings to discuss urgent issues and have real-time solutions to problems.
• Most of us like to spend time with our families or outdoors, so a flexible schedule is available, and we cover for each other when we’re out.

Key Responsibilities:

• We welcome the challenge of complex cases, working in a 9-bed open ICU. Our ICU-capable physician performs procedures during the day and is the backup for the night.
