Emergency Medicine Physician

HealthYes Staffing Network is recruiting an Emergency Medicine Physician for a permanent opportunity with a community-focused hospital in Northern Maine. This opening combines the clinical variety of a 24-hour emergency department with scheduling flexibility and the support physicians need to build a sustainable long-term practice.

The emergency department treats approximately 16,000 patients annually. Physicians work alongside experienced emergency nurses and advanced practice providers, with APPs helping manage lower-acuity visits. The patient population includes a meaningful number of older adults, and common presentations include cardiac and respiratory concerns. Patients requiring services beyond the hospital’s scope are stabilized and transferred to regional tertiary centers.

What the practice offers:

• Full-time, part-time, and per-diem scheduling options
• Physician-influenced scheduling built around 12-hour shifts
• A common full-time pattern of three shifts one week and four the next
• 24-hour emergency department with more than 10 exam rooms and a dedicated trauma room
• More than 10,000 emergency visits annually
• Advanced practice provider support for lower-acuity cases
• Broad emergency medicine exposure within a close-knit rural hospital setting
• Established protocols for stabilizing and transferring complex trauma, cardiac, neurosurgical, and behavioral-health cases
