The Division of General Internal Medicine is seeking nocturnist locums to provide evening and overnight coverage on weekends for the inpatient medicine units at Brampton Civic Hospital and Etobicoke General Hospital.
The selected candidate will be responsible for providing unplanned medical care for admitted medicine patients. The role is supported by an in-house internist providing Emergency Department (ED) consultative services and an intensivist-led critical care response team. The nocturnist locum will be required to commit to at least one to two shifts per month.
The coverage hours are:
- Brampton Civic Hospital: Monday to Sunday from 11:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m.
- Etobicoke General Hospital: Monday to Friday from 11:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m.; Saturdays and Sundays from 8:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m.
The expectations of the physician on this shift include coverage of inpatient ward calls (including admitted patients boarding in the ED) and code blue attendance together with the ED internist.
The shifts will be remunerated at the COVID-19 protected code blue hourly rate until March 31, 2023. You also have the option of billing fee for service if you so choose, but one cannot do both (i.e. if hospital pays you the hourly rate, you cannot bill fee for service during those same hours).
As an affiliated academic community teaching site for the McMaster University Michael G. DeGroote School of Medicine and a key clinical partner for the new School of Medicine with Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU), there is opportunity to participate in clinical education with medical students and residents.
The successful applicant will be highly motivated with strong interpersonal skills and an interest in clinical care. They will have an opportunity to join one of the fastest growing community hospitals offering innovative research opportunities, access to cutting-edge technology, and support from one of Ontario’s leading physician wellness programs. The candidate must have an Independent Practice Certificate of Registration from the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario and have experience caring for medical inpatients.
