I have a facility in Southwest Kentucky, a little less than two hours from Nashville, TN, looking for locum tenen coverage starting as soon as you are available and continueing through the end of the year. You can commit to less time if you'd like. They also have a permanent need and locums is a great way to actually work at location , see if you like the area and the people, before signing a multi-year contract.
You would be rounding on approximately 12-15 patients per day. There are always two Hospitalists on during the day alongside either a Nurse Practitioner or a Physician Assistant.
This city has approximately 19,000 residents and has plenty of options for eateries and lodging. They do have a Hampton Inn and Suites as well as a Holiday Inn Express that are very nice and up to date. There are well over 20 different Restaurants in town to choose from if you decide to eat out.
Along with the hourly rate, there is additional opportunity to earn extra fees at night. The physicians take call every other night during their shifts. The call is mostly taken by telephone, very rarely do the physicians have to go in. For being on call you’ll receive an additional 175.00 per night, just to carry the beeper. If you get called you get a minimum of 15 min overtime for every phone call you take.
Please contact me right away if you OR anyone you might know would be interested in this position.
