Full-Time, Part-Time and Casual Hospitalists

Island Health
South Island Hospitalist group
Victoria

Description: 
The South Island Hospitalist group, along with Island Health, is looking for hospitalists to join their dynamic team in beautiful Victoria.

Hospitalists in Victoria provide a 24-hour MRP service at the Victoria General and Royal Jubilee Hospitals. The medicine is interesting; there is a lot of variety, pathology, and they enjoy a high degree of autonomy while being well supported by their specialist colleagues. Their care covers patients aged 17-100+, and includes addictions, palliative care, geriatrics and co-management of surgical and rehabilitation patients.

Island Health is affiliated with the UBC Faculty of Medicine. Hospitalists support undergraduate and resident teaching at both hospital sites. They have weekly CME rounds, and many opportunities for learning, growth and innovation. As part of their team you also have the option of working in one of their unique hospitalist-run programs including the Inpatient MAID service, Hospital at Home and the Rapid Assessment and Discharge short-stay unit.

They are looking for enthusiastic, keen candidates with an interest in acute care who love working collaboratively as part of a team. They have a strong, tailored mentorship program to onboard our new members.  In addition, they offer a six-week (non consecutive) FP return to acute care refresher program for those out of hospital medicine two years. Ask for more details!

Relocation allowances may be available for full-time positions.
