The 5 hospitalists will be floating around doing admitting and consults. Patient load is being set to 15 for now with about 5-7 admissions. Non-acute bed coverage working solely with the medicine service. NO ER or Surgery only consults when needed. This program is being set up to compliment their teaching hospitalist program so the physicians will not need to work with residents.
Nights 10:00P-07:00A, 7on 7off coverage
IM docs HIGHLY preferred but will look at specialists however FP is not acceptable. Any state license
