About the Opportunity

The Nova Scotia Health and IWK Health organization is seeking a physician to provide coverage for the Hospitalist Medicine Service at the QEII. This opportunity involves providing care to approximately 45 patients with a long-term care level of care, cohorted at the VG Hospital. The compensation for this position is sessional at a rate of $1515 per day.

Responsibilities

As a physician in this role, you will be responsible for seeing patients twice weekly and as needed. Your hours of duty will be from 8am to 5pm, with the expectation that you will be available at the bedside within 20 minutes if a patient experiences a clinical change.
