Our client, located in eastern Virginia, has an urgent need for a locums Hospitalist, Monday through Friday, guaranteed 8A - 5P, starting the first week of August ongoing for a minimum of three months. There would be off-site beeper call coverage every three days and you may end up coming back into the facility once in a blue moon. Candidate must be BC Internal Medicine with Hospitalist experience and strong comfort level with ICU procedures, such as central lines, vent management, and preferred intubations, but there's Emergency Department and Anesthesiology backup to help with those. Hospitalist will assist with codes and rapid responses and there is emergency room and anesthesia support on-site to help with those too. Schedule is triple coverage and locums will see 10-14 ppd, plus 1-2 ICU ppd, and will be responsible for rounding admissions, assisting with consults for the surgeons and other specialties pre-operative surgery, and follow patients through ICU. Client can provide emergency credentialing, so the ideal candidate may start this opportunity as quickly as possible. This is a 24/7 in-house program and is perfect for moonlighters and fellows!
