Our client has immediate job opportunities for locums Hospitalists for their rapidly growing Hospitalist program in beautiful eastern Arkansas starting in August. The candidates need to be very comfortable with ICU procedures, such as central lines and vent management, but if they have the ability to perform intubations, that’s a mark in their favor. There are two different needs within this facility. One is for a straight 7 on / 7 off Hospitalist who can cover either the 7A - 7P shift or the Nocturnist schedule of 7P - 7A. No after-hours beeper call coverage required. There are 5 doctors who cover the floor during the day and the patient volume is 20 - 22 ppd, with additional 3 - 4 admissions per doctor. There is full sub-specialty support during the day, including Pulm/CC, Neuro-Surgeons, Orthopedic Surgeons, GI, Anesthesiology, and Radiology. There is phone support and the Emergency Department for support in the evening. The other need is for an Admissions Specialist who will still work 7 on / 7 off, but Monday - Friday, 6P - 2A, with Saturdays and Sundays from 2P - 2A. This role will only take admissions through the Emergency Department and handles consults, but no floor patients and no ICU required. Credentialing can be accomplished in 4 - 6 weeks and the client will make decisions very quickly. If you are looking for full-time or part-time work, please call us because the client can really use your expertise to keep the continuity of care for their patients. When the work day is over, you can take in all the Southern hospitality this community has to offer, with live bands, theater, a whole host of restaurants, and plenty of recreational activities, which all contribute to making this a great place to live and work!
