Job Description

Join Our Team as a Healthcare Provider

At our organization, we strive to simplify the locum tenens experience. We not only seek out opportunities that align with your preferences but also manage all logistical aspects such as credentialing, accommodation, travel arrangements, and much more.

Key Responsibilities
  • Work schedule begins at 7 AM, with multiple holiday and extended coverage blocks available.
  • Manage 10 to 15 beds within the department.
  • Provide care in an inpatient hospital environment.
  • Collaborate with 2 Nurse Practitioners, who oversee 50 clinic patients weekly.
  • Handle a high volume of calls as part of your duties.
  • Perform various procedures, including hernia repairs, colorectal surgeries, bariatric procedures, scopes, appendectomies, and gallbladder surgeries.
  • Additional skills in bowel resections, emergency general surgery, incision and drainage (I&D), and wound care are beneficial.
  • Hospital privileges are necessary for this role.
What We Offer
  • Competitive compensation, with weekly payment deposits.
  • Complimentary housing and travel arrangements.
  • Comprehensive malpractice insurance coverage.
  • Streamlined credentialing and privileging processes.
  • Access to an online portal for assignment details and time tracking.
  • A dedicated recruiter to manage all aspects of your assignment.
