Are you an Anesthesiologist interested in living and practicing in one of Canada's most beautiful and warmest regions? Island Health welcomes Anesthesiologists to apply for permanent, full-time, part-time or locum, opportunities. The Department of Anesthesia at NRGH is seeking Anesthesiologists to join their close knit and collegial group of 19 FRCP(C) anesthesiologists.

Nanaimo Regional General Hospital (NRGH) is a 356 acute care bed regional hospital providing services to a population of 160,000 and a secondary referral population of over 350,000. NRGH has a total of 10 ORs in the main operating room and 2 ambulatory ORs used for ophthalmology and minor procedures under local anesthetic. We provide 24/7 coverage for the main OR and the labour and delivery suite. Members of our group also provide coverage at our outpatient consult clinic, an ambulatory surgical center, and a private oral surgery clinic. Surgical specialties at NRGH include: General Surgery, Orthopedics, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Plastic Surgery, Urology, Otolaryngology, Oral-Maxillofacial Surgery, Pediatric Dentistry, and Ophthalmology. We are supported in our day to day clinical work by a dedicated group of four Anesthesia Assistants.

The surgical program at NRGH completes approximately 13,500 surgeries per year including 8,700 daycare surgeries and 4,600 in-patient surgeries. We have a busy emergency service conducting approximately 2,300 emergency surgeries per year. Our perinatal unit does approximately 1,200 deliveries per year and is supported by a level 2 NICU. Our main OR was constructed in 2005 and is equipped with state of the art wireless HD laparoscopic equipment. We utilize Drager Zeus anesthetic machines and share access to four ultrasound machines to facilitate regional anesthesia and vascular access. We do a large volume of elective and emergency orthopedic surgery and incorporate regional blocks into patient care as appropriate. We run an outpatient consult clinic three days per week. NRGH has a new state of the art ICU tower which will include 12 ICU beds and a 12 bed high acuity unit. We enjoy good support from critical care and most medical subspecialties.

Current ACLS, PALS required. ATLS certification desirable. Additional consideration given to candidates with fellowship training in any of Regional Anesthesia, Obstetrical Anesthesia, or Perioperative Medicine.
