What are the responsibilities and job description for the Hospitalist position at Health Match BC?
Role and Facility Information
Fraser Health is the heart of health care for over two million people in Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley in British Columbia, Canada, on the traditional, ancestral and unceded lands of the Coast Salish and Nlaka’pamux Nations and is home to 32 First Nations within the Fraser Salish region.
People - those we care for and those who care for them - are at the heart of everything we do. Our hospital and community-based services are delivered by a team of 48,000 staff, medical staff and volunteers.
Ridge Meadows Hospital (RMH) is seeking qualified physicians to join our well established and very busy Hospitalist program in a permanent (full time/part time) capacity. Applicants should have a strong interest in developing a permanent acute care hospital practice and working collaboratively with all members of the inter-professional team, including medical staff, Nurse Practitioners, and Allied Health staff.
Primary responsibilities include admission and management of “unattached” patients as the Most Responsible Physician (MRP), as well as supportive care for some surgical and specialty medical patients. This job requires superior clinical and communication skills, along with exceptional bedside manner and people management abilities. Our hospitalists must be proficient with the range of hospital and community resources available in their local institution, and work collaboratively with specialist and community-based physicians to optimize patient care and discharge planning processes. Our team members must demonstrate a commitment to the evolving specialty of hospital medicine through involvement in clinical and non-clinical activities (such as quality improvement projects, participation in committees and academic excellence). They are expected to show a curiosity for lifelong learning and a desire for on-going continuing professional development by participating in academic and CME activities relevant to acute care medicine. New graduates who apply for positions are expected to demonstrate their proficiency in hospital medicine through hospitalist electives and other relevant educational rotations during their training. Candidates with post-graduate Fellowship training in hospital medicine will be given preference.
Shifts: There are 10 hour shifts (7am-5pm) Monday to Sunday. An evening admitting shift (4 admissions) from 5-11pm is staffed on a rotational basis and is compensated at the usual hourly rate. There are virtual evening shifts (5-11pm) and 9 hour virtual overnight shifts (11pm-8am), which can be done from home but are only available to those physicians who do day and evening admitting shifts. Scheduling is done three months in advance and is “preferential/flexible scheduling”, not block rotations.
Eligibility: Candidates must be licensed or (eligible for licensure) with College of Physicians and Surgeons of British Columbia (CPSBC). Hospitalist experience is strongly suggested, and membership in professional hospital medicine societies is an asset.
Compensation: per Physician Master Agreement and the Hospitalist contract dated March 15 2024. Currently that is $200/hr with additional incentives up to $40/hr.
Closing: November 15, 2024
We are committed to planetary health and value diversity in the work force. We strive to maintain an environment of respect, caring and trust. Fraser Health’s hiring practices aspire to ensure all individuals are treated in an inclusive, equitable and culturally safe manner.
