If you are looking to get away from all the stresses in your everyday life and need a change of scenery, this is the perfect place to get away from it all! A beautiful facility in a small desert town in northwest Nevada has a job opportunity for weekend help. The facility is seeking an additional Family Practitioner to help with weekend call. Currently their doctors are being overworked and they could use an additional physician to give them more time off on the weekends. They are seeking a BE/BC Family Practitioner with Hospitalist experience, or a BE/BC Internal Medicine physician with Pediatric experience. The candidate can expect to cover weekend call from 7pm on Friday until 7am on Monday. They will be responsible for an average of 4 to 5 patients per day, as the volume here is low. The candidate would be responsible for rounding on all inpatients, and after inpatient rounds are complete, the physician will carry a pager for the remainder of the 24-hour period. The physician will return to the hospital for extreme cases, and will be responsible for Pediatric through Geriatric patient population with minimal backup on-site. There is usually a surgeon in town, as well as an OB physician. The ED will stabilize and ship critical patients to Reno. This is a great opportunity for any physician seeking a unique and low-key job with the potential for more!
