Position description

UCSF Division of Hospital Medicine General Medicine Night Hospitalist Position
The UCSF Division of Hospital Medicine at UCSF Health is seeking applicants for the general medicine night hospitalist position. Our goal is to provide these new faculty members with clinical experiences that match their career interests. Many faculty in the general medicine night hospitalist position ultimately transition to subspecialty fellowships, while others remain on faculty long-term and transition to clinical or academic hospitalist positions.

Job Details:
Position Overview: The Night Hospitalist Service (NHS) provides direct care to patients and supervises the patient care of internal medicine resident physicians overnight. The role offers a dynamic environment with a focus on comprehensive patient management and collaboration with other hospitalists.

Key Responsibilities:
NHS hospitalists primarily work at the UCSF Helen Diller Medical Center at the Parnassus Heights campus and St. Mary's Hospital. The hospitalists provide clinical care for 12-hour shifts overnight and sign out to the daytime direct care hospitalist teams and resident physician teams in the morning at each of these two sites. NHS hospitalists may also rarely work night shifts at the Mission Bay and Mt. Zion hospitals. Specific roles related to each site are included below.

Parnassus Heights Campus: Four night hospitalists are in-house with designated roles and responsibilities, including: triaging new admissions requests, admitting and cross-covering hospitalized patients, providing Medicine consults to patients on other clinical services, and supervising patients cared for by the Internal Medicine resident physicians at UCSF.

St Mary's Campus: Two night hospitalists are in-house with designated roles and responsibilities, including triaging new admission and transfer requests, admitting and cross-covering hospitalized patients, providing Medicine consults to patients on other clinical services, supporting rapid responses, and directly staffing new admissions by the Internal Medicine resident physicians at St. Mary's.

Mission Bay and Mount Zion Campuses: Hospitalists on night shifts at these campuses have responsibilities related to admitting new patients, cross-covering hospitalized patients, and providing medicine consults to patients on other services, with simplified scope relative to Parnassus Heights and St. Mary's campuses. Please contact Esther Hsiang ( View email address on click.appcast.io ) for any questions.
