The CL psychiatrist will work with the Director of CL and a multidisciplinary team to provide high-quality psychiatric and addiction consultation.

The scope of the service includes the medical-surgical floors and the Emergency Department.

There are also three outpatient sites, a separate partial hospital program for adults and adolescents, and a team of psychiatric crisis clinicians in the emergency department available 24/7.

Qualified candidates will have the opportunity for a Tufts Medical School faculty appointment.

There are multiple opportunities for on-site teaching, including medical students, Physician Assistant students, Nurse Practitioner students, and medical residents.

Salaries are highly competitive. Evening and weekend call duties are reasonable and provide additional compensation.
