The Timmins and District Hospital (TADH)’s Hospitalist Department is seeking locums to cover gaps in schedule.
We have a typical census of 60, so you could expect a list of around 15, including ALC (0-3 patients), on a 4- hospitalist week
Hospitalist weeks start at 08:00 on Fridays and finish at 08:00 on the following Friday.
We truly have a great supportive group of physicians and specialists support including Internal Medicine, General Surgery, ENT, Psychiatry, Orthopedics, Anesthesia, Addictions Medicine, and Nephrology. We also have an excellent DI Dept with state-of-the-art CT and MRI.
Allied health supports include 24/7 RT, SW, PT, OT, Dietician, Geriatric Assessment Team (SW/OTs).
For codes, there is always at least one ER physician in-house to run codes. Often, the Internist will also support. If you are in office, they will ask for your involvement, as you know the patient’s history the best.
Position Responsibilities
Hospitalist s equally share the on-call responsibilities for new admits throughout the week. Admissions typically come from the ICU or ER. Our Emergency physicians do admission assessments/orders and will also hold calls from 23:00 hrs until the next am at 07:00 hrs before calling. You are not required to see the admission that day (unless crashing, of course). Admissions are then divided equally among the four hospitalist s the following morning (typically work together to balance each other’s lists).
Hospitalist s are also on-call for their patients throughout the week.
We use Meditech Expanse as our EMR.
Training is available if not familiar.
