We have a client in North Carolina seeking locums coverage. Starting in May.
Locums would cover the outpatient office and hospital.
Call is rotated among providers, 1:3. There are two midlevel providers that will participate but there will need to be back up for those providers, mostly phone call though.
Average 18-22 patients per day mostly 20 minute med checks per physician
Average 14 patients with average of 2 admissions per day at hospital per physician
Programs and Facility - The hospitals behavioral health services include an 8-bed gero unit located on the first floor of the main hospital, a 20-bed adult unit located off-campus about 1 mile from the main hospital, and an outpatient office located on the adult unit campus. No kids are seen at the hospital, but they are seen at the clinic.
There is no call during the week. Call on the weekend works like this:
Friday 5P - Sat 8A phone call only. Mostly referrals coming in, admissions, and anyone that may have concerns with the inpatient medications, etc.
There is a medicine doc on call that will take medicine call, so only will have to be on call for psych patients. Therefore, no need for critical care med experience. There is dictation. The medicine doc does the histories and physicals.
Cases: major depression, schizophrenia, biopolar, mood disorders
Please contact me if you are interested!
