• For those who like to teach, we work with medical students, APPs, and residents from Shenandoah, Frostburg, and other local programs.

• Accountable, on-site leadership: a local medical director who knows the community and owns the department's performance, supported by Sound's leadership-development tools.

• Stable, well-staffed teams: cohesive teams aligned on our patient-first culture of excellence, which means less reliance on premium temp labor and more predictable shifts.

Qualifications:

• Board certified/board eligible pediatrician with emergency medicine experience.

• Authorized to work in the United States.

Scheduling:

• 12-hour shifts for physicians.

Key Responsibilities:

• Responsible for covering 9 beds in the ED and 5 inpatient beds.

• Annual ED volume is 16K with an average of 3 inpatients to round on per day.

• Seamless integration with Sound Physicians' hospitalist, observation, adult EM, and critical care teams for smooth throughput, ensuring a low LWBS rate of less than 3%.

• We are Magnet-status accredited with fully staffed nursing, ensuring a high standard of care.

• Cutting-edge facilities include point-of-care ultrasound in the ED, an ED pharmacist, and dedicated ED social work/case management.

Living and Working in Frederick:

• Frederick isn't just where we work-it's where we live and enjoy the perfect blend of history, culture, and modern living. With its charming downtown, beautiful parks, and vibrant arts scene, Frederick offers a unique lifestyle with a strong sense of community.
