Nanaimo, Canada Island Health Full time

The Department of Psychiatry at Nanaimo Regional General Hospital (NRGH) is looking for General Psychiatrists to provide locum services.

Nanaimo’s Department of Psychiatry consists of adult, child and youth, and geriatric psychiatrists working in community and acute settings.

Acute services are provided at NRGH, which has 224 acute care beds and a 24-bed inpatient psychiatry unit. In September 2012, our new Emergency Department opened, which includes a 4-bed Psychiatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) and a busy Psychiatric Emergency Service (PES).

Community services are provided through community mental health and substance use treatment teams. These community teams offer rehab support and case management for adults, as well as consultation and psychiatric clinical services for primary care referrals.

The locum Psychiatrist would be joining a collegial psychiatrist group from acute and community settings within the Nanaimo Mental Health and Substance Use programs. Psychiatrists are valuable members of a collaborative interdisciplinary team that includes case management clinicians, nursing, occupational therapists, rehab support, social work, and psychology, working together to provide comprehensive psychosocial rehabilitation within a recovery-oriented, culturally safe, and trauma-informed framework.

Island Health’s full-scope general psychiatrists should be comfortable providing the following services: evaluation and treatment of mood disorders, psychotic disorders, anxiety disorders, substance use disorders, OCD, PTSD, personality disorders, ADHD, ASD, eating disorders, adjustment disorders, somatic symptom or functional disorders, brain injury, neurological disorders, and psychiatric aspects of medical conditions.

On-call responsibility is mandatory for Island Health psychiatrists, under a Departmental MOCAP contract, and averages one weekend day every 4-6 weeks. After-hours phone coverage is shared with a second psychiatrist for the following week.

Locum dates are flexible throughout the year, with a specific need upcoming for August 2025 for 6 weeks.

Furnished office, computer, telephone, and administrative support are provided.

Start Date: As soon as possible

Community Information: Nanaimo, an exciting urban community with a breathtaking waterfront, provides an opportunity to enjoy an active lifestyle with a multitude of year-round recreational opportunities including golf, mountain biking, walking trails, kayaking, paddle boarding, sailing, and diving to explore three artificial reefs created by wrecks sunk in the harbour. In winter, both downhill and cross-country skiing can be enjoyed at Mount Washington, just 1.5 hours north. This vibrant, growing city of 120,000 is a great place to raise a family, boasting its own symphony and theater, offering post-secondary education at Vancouver Island University, and is just 15 minutes by seaplane or ferry to downtown Vancouver and a pleasant drive to Victoria.
