Millbrook, Canada Nova Scotia Health Authority Full time
About This Opportunity

Nova Scotia Health Authority's innovative Care by Design program provides residents of long-term care facilities with high-quality and consistent primary care. The program aims to achieve quality of life for our most frail seniors and an appropriate healthcare approach to meet their health needs. Comprehensive, collaborative, and resident-centered care are ensured through the program.

As a Care by Design physician, you will join a collaborative team of family physicians who strive to improve continuity and quality of resident care in long-term care facilities. Your role will involve ensuring better safety of residents' medication regimens, reducing transfers to emergency departments, and empowering residents to be participants in their care planning.

The program offers a unique opportunity for physicians to work in a collaborative environment with minimal travel and improved communication with facilities and residents. You will be assigned to one geographical network, providing you with a stable and predictable schedule. The networks allow for robust on-call services, more efficient training, and supportive quality improvement opportunities.

Physicians are paid for fee-for-service under NS MSI, with an additional stipend paid for on-call shifts. There are no overhead costs to participate in Care by Design. If you are working on the Longitudinal Family Medicine model, this can be discussed as well.

  • Minimum requirement to round on patients once a week
  • Shared evening and weekend call
