We are assisting Island Health with the recruitment and integration of PAs into the Emergency Department at the Saanich Peninsula Hospital.
The Saanich Peninsula Hospital (SPH) is a short twenty-minute drive from downtown Victoria. The SPH emergency room is currently closed overnight with a goal to resume twenty-four-hour operations in the future. The Department is staffed with emergency medicine physicians with augmentation with family physicians for less acute patients. It has on-site CT, x-ray, and ultrasound as well as lab throughout most hours.
Saanich is a community in Canada's warmest capital and is ranked as the 10th driest of 41 major Canadian cities. Vancouver Island offers numerous recreational activities such as cycling, world-class mountain biking, hiking, boating, golf year-round, and is on the doorstep of Whistler and other major ski areas. Clinical care provided by the PA will occur at Saanich Peninsula Hospital (SPH) under the supervision of the Physician Supervisor. The PA reports to a Site Administrative Manager but is accountable to the Physician Supervisor or delegate for overall provision of quality of care and professional development. The PA supports the provision of continuous care in a team-based environment working collaboratively with the Emergency Department attending physicians, medical residents, nursing, and allied health professionals.
