150-provider multispecialty group in Southeastern Massachusetts, is seeking to add a Nocturnist physician to our team. Position is full-time (14 shifts a month), but will consider part-time candidate. 

ICU skills are needed to run "codes" and "rapid responses", to intubate and start lines, and to manage ICU patients with the assistance of the eICU (electronic ICU) team, who follows ICU patients remotely overnight. Most of the overnight duties involve the admission and management of Emergency Room patients on floors, the telemetry unit, and the ICU. There is no major trauma, and the Boston hospitals are resources for complex patients who require transfer for tertiary care. Our group has readily-available specialists to assist in patient management.

Night shifts are 12-hours (7am 7pm) and we would expect at least 14 shifts per month. Routine floor calls are taken from home by a Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant from 10pm until 7am. Significant emphasis is placed on patient satisfaction and teamwork.

Our group is entirely physician-owned and managed. We use an app- and web-based charge-capture and billing system for our Hospitalists (IngeniousMed) to maximize efficiency and the Hospital uses Meditech, requiring Computer Physician Order Entry (CPOE) and real-time creation of notes. xhyhwjd
