About the TADH Hospitalist Program:

• We have a typical census of around 60, so you could expect a list of around 15, including ALC (0-3 patients), on a 4-hospitalist week.
• Hospitalist weeks start at 08:00 on Fridays and finish at 08:00 on the following Friday.
• We truly have a great supportive group of physicians and specialists support including Internal Medicine, General Surgery, ENT, Psychiatry, Orthopedics, Anesthesia, Addictions Medicine, and Nephrology. We also have an excellent DI Dept with state-of-the-art CT and MRI.
• Allied health supports include 24/7 RT, SW, PT, OT, Dietician, Geriatric Assessment Team (SW/OTs).
• For codes, there is always at least one ER physician in-house to run codes. Often, the Internist will also support. If you are onsite they will ask for your involvement, as you know the patient's history the best.
• As a 4th hospitalist, you would equally share the on-call responsibilities for new admits throughout the week. Admits typically come from the ICU or ER. Our Emergency physicians do admission assessments/orders and will also hold calls from 23:00 hrs until the next am at 07:00 hrs before calling. Admissions are divided equally among the four hospitalists, usually when you meet in the am (typically work together to balance the lists).
• Hospitalists are also on-call for their patients throughout the week.
• We use Meditech Expanse as our EMR. Training is available if not familiar.
• Travel and accommodations are supported through the Northern Specialist Locum Program
  • $150/night for accommodations
    • We have apartments 2 minutes from the hospital or multiple hotels that are 5-10 minutes away from the hospital
  • $50/day for car rentals
