Job description

The Hospitalist Medicine Division at Island Health has openings for full-time, part-time, and locum Hospitalists.

We are a collegial group of ~25 physicians with diverse backgrounds who share a commitment to our team, emphasizing work-life balance. Whether you are a mountain biker, gardener, dog lover, dancer, skier, musician, or hiker, you will find like-minded individuals to show you the hidden gems Nanaimo has to offer. Many of our hospitalists have young families, and you’ll find Nanaimo to be a great-sized town to raise kids with affordable living and all of the amenities you need, without the traffic you do not.

Like all aspects of medicine, some days can be demanding, and the patient load and complexity can be challenging. Our group is MRP for the majority of patients at Nanaimo General Regional Hospital. We continuously learn from our peers and colleagues, creating interesting, collaborative, and stimulating work. We pride ourselves on the supportive environment we have created, with great specialist relations and a culture of helping each other whenever needed. This makes those challenging days manageable and more rewarding as you feel that you are truly a valued member of the team.

Our scheduling offers great flexibility, with shifts assigned months in advance to allow ample time to plan for your and your family’s needs. Most of our shifts are weekday hours, but we do have weekend and evening shifts built into our schedule. The shifts are generally in a block format of 5-7 consecutive days, but we also have single days and shorter blocks of shifts available.

Start Date : As soon as possible.

Additional Information : Full-time, part-time, and locum opportunities are available.

Community Information : Nanaimo is a growing, vibrant, and family-oriented community that enjoys access to abundant outdoor activities, with proximity to Victoria and Vancouver just a 90-minute ferry or 20-minute seaplane ride away. The community of 85,000 offers a wide variety of cultural and educational opportunities, including an 800-seat waterfront theatre, Vancouver Island University, and adjacent renowned private school options. Nanaimo offers a true West Coast experience with great access to skiing, hiking, surfing, kayaking, and more.
