About the Position

Mount Vernon, Ohio Emergency Medicine Physician Locum Tenens Opportunity
~25K Annual ED Visits • 17-Bed ED • 12-Hour Shifts • 22 Hours of Daily APP Coverage

Rhino Medical is leading the charge seeking Emergency Medicine Physicians for locum tenens coverage in Mount Vernon, Ohio .

This opportunity offers a strong community Emergency Medicine model: approximately 25,000 annual ED visits , a 17-bed Emergency Department , consistent 12-hour physician shifts , and 22 hours of NP/PA coverage every day .

The opportunity is open not only to EM-trained physicians, but also qualified Family Medicine and Internal Medicine physicians , providing multiple pathways into this community ED practice.

Opportunity Highlights

• Approximately 25,000 annual ED visits
• 17-bed Emergency Department
• 115-bed community hospital
• Moderate-acuity Emergency Medicine
• Adult and pediatric patient population
• 12-hour physician shifts
• 24 hours of physician coverage daily
• 22 hours of NP/PA coverage daily
• Moderate sedation
• EM, FM and IM training pathways considered

Schedule & Coverage Model

Physicians work a consistent 12-hour shift structure within a heavily supported coverage model.

Current shift structure:

• 7:00 AM–7:00 PM
• 7:00 PM–7:00 AM

Daily coverage:

• 24 hours of physician coverage
• 22 hours of NP/PA coverage

That near-around-the-clock APP presence provides meaningful clinical support throughout the majority of both physician shifts.

Emergency Medicine Practice

Physicians will provide broad-spectrum Emergency Medicine within a moderate-acuity community hospital environment.

The Emergency Department cares for adult and pediatric patients and is supported by hospital services including intensive care, OB/GYN, laboratory, radiology and other medical and surgical resources.

The hospital is also actively expanding and renovating its Emergency Department to increase treatment capacity and improve patient flow.

Clinical scope includes:

• Emergency evaluation and stabilization
• Adult and pediatric Emergency Medicine
• Moderate-acuity presentations
• Moderate sedation
• Collaboration with NP/PA clinicians
• Physician supervision responsibilities as applicable to the coverage model

Physician Requirements

• MD or DO
• Residency trained in Emergency Medicine, Family Medicine or Internal Medicine
• Board Certified or Board Eligible in EM, FM or IM
• Active, unrestricted Ohio medical license
• Active DEA with required Ohio prescribing schedules
• NRP
• FM/IM physicians: ACLS, PALS and ATLS required
• EM-boarded physicians: exempt from ACLS, PALS and ATLS requirements
• Ability to provide previous 2 years of case logs
• Seasonal influenza vaccination required

There is no minimum experience requirement specified by the current requisition.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Exceptional APP Coverage:  With 22 NP/PA coverage hours every day , physicians work within a strongly supported community ED model.
• Consistent 12-Hour Structure:  Straightforward 7A–7P and 7P–7A physician shifts provide clearly defined coverage windows.
• Manageable Community ED Volume:  Approximately 25K annual visits across 17 ED beds creates a meaningful Emergency Medicine practice without major metropolitan ED volume.
• Multiple Training Pathways:  The opportunity considers appropriately qualified EM, FM and IM physicians , rather than restricting coverage exclusively to residency-trained Emergency Medicine physicians.

Why Providers Choose Rhino Medical

• Weekly direct deposit
• AAA-rated professional liability coverage
• Concierge credentialing support
• Dedicated recruiter communication
• Transparent scheduling and onboarding
• Long-term relationship focus
