Clinical time would be spent in the Neurosciences NICU at Emory University Hospital, Emory University Midtown Hospital and Grady Memorial Hospital. We expect the time will be split between Emory University Hospitals and Grady Memorial Hospital primarily. However, this could change based on the needs of the service and expected future expansion.
Clinical service in the Neurosciences NICU would be scheduled in 1-2 week blocks, alternating coverage with other physicians. These duties would not exceed 2-3 weeks of clinical service per month, with 1-2 weeks of non-clinical time for other administrative and academic pursuits. The clinical expectation is approximately 20 weeks of service per year, however, this is based on an individual calculation and therefore, may result in an increased number of weekends and reduced number of weeks. Alterations to this schedule would be made by mutual agreement between the successful candidate, the Director of the Division of Neurocritical Care, and the Department Chair.
Night call would be in the Emory Hospital Units and Grady Neurosciences Critical Care Units and would be shared equitably among all physicians covering the units.
It may be expectated that the successful candidate may participate in coverage of the virtual Neurocritical care program as it develops.
The successful candidate will be expected to devote more than 75% of total effort to professional service.
