Have you ever wanted to visit the Blue Ridge Mountains? Well, here's your chance! Our client has a job opportunity for a locums Hospitalist starting in January and ongoing until they find a permanent candidate to fill a need for a physician who is leaving. The right candidate will be BC/BE in Internal Medicine with a strong comfort level in performing ICU procedures, such as intubations, central lines and vent management, along with running point on codes and rapid responses. This is single coverage for day and night and the patient census per day is 15-22 encounters, including 5+/- admissions per day. Lots of sub-specialty support is available. There's flexibility in the scheduling and currently they are doing a 3-day rotation, 7A-7P, with after hours off-site beeper call (but that means extra money!), and you'll see 3-8 calls per night. The client is willing to work with a 7 on/7off, if you would prefer. The credentialing can be completed within 6-8 weeks; faster if there is a short paper trail and a perfect application. This is a good ongoing opportunity and if you like it, you just might decide it's the place for you! The money is great, the air is fresh, the grass is green (until the snow comes!), and the mountains are a sight to see! Oh, and there's lots of funs things to do when you aren't working, such as hiking, biking, boating, shopping, antique stores, and unique restaurants. What a great way to get the New Year started off right! Please call us quickly, because this job will be gone!
