The Department of Emergency Medicine at Headwaters Healthcare Centre is looking to add additional Emergency Medicine physicians. Our emergency physician group sees over 40,000 cases annually. Our physicians benefit from the 24‑hour support from our colleagues in general surgery, internal medicine, anesthesia, pediatrics, and obstetrics, as well as subspecialists in ENT, orthopedics, plastic surgery, ophthalmology and urology. There is 24/7 respiratory therapy support.
Physicians have access within the ER to two point‑of‑care ultrasound machines with transesophageal and endocavitary capabilities. State‑of‑the‑art diagnostic imaging equipment includes a 64‑slice CT scanner. An MRI machine is anticipated for January 2025.
Headwaters Healthcare Centre is a community‑based hospital operating as an acute and complex continuing care facility, offering both inpatient and outpatient services. Our Emergency Department provides 24/7 coverage.
We have 86 acute care beds and a level two ICU supporting a catchment area of over 100,000. With over 800 staff and 160 physicians, the hospital is accredited with Exemplary Standing by Accreditation Canada.
We are located in Orangeville, Ontario. Our small town offers opportunities for outdoor recreation such as skiing, golf and hiking, and many thriving shops and restaurants. It is conveniently located one hour from downtown Toronto or Collingwood.
Our emergency physician group receives competitive remuneration based on AFA and the ability to participate in HOCC.
Requirements
We are looking for CCFP physicians with some ER experience (but will consider recent graduates with ER training experience or interest) or CCFP‑EM.
Applicants must be current with ACLS, ATLS and PALS certifications and be eligible for independent licensure in Ontario. This is a great opportunity for current graduates in a well‑supported environment.
