Outpatient/Inpatient Medicine
- 1-5 Patients per shift
- Physicians must be board certified
- Full Support Staff
- The provider must be able to perform vent management, Intubation, UVC, UAC, Lumbar puncture
- This can be structured so that the locum would work 1 or 2 weeks straight with a break and then resume call/clinic for the 3rd week. I am open to structuring the call weeks in a way that works best for the provider, whether that is working straight through or working a span of days with a break. If we have 2 locums, it would be structured so that 1 locum would work clinic and call for a portion of the 21 days and then the other would work the remaining days
