Emergency Medicine Physician
Health Match BC
Date: 1 week ago
City: Kamloops, BC
Contract type: Full time
Role and Facility Information
Kamloops
Kamloops is a vibrant city of 100,000, at the northern extension of productive wine country in south central British Columbia. We sit in the middle of lakes, mountains, ski hills, and river systems. We enjoy biking, hiking, skiing, water sports, all right here in our backyard. Our community has an excellent educational system, organized sports, music and theatre. There are amenities not often found in small urban centres. University affiliations provide rejuvenation and an atmosphere to keep learning. Blue skies, endless sunshine, spectacular landscapes and friendly, welcoming people make Kamloops the natural place to call home and experience life to the fullest.
Clinic details
The Royal Inland Hospital (RIH) is a UBC teaching hospital and one of two tertiary hospitals in Interior Health. Our facility serves a catchment of approximately 250,000 and has 273 beds.
The Royal Inland Hospital is a unique place to work where Medical Staff culture and collegiality in combination with a collaborative relationship with Hospital Administration maximizes opportunities for job satisfaction and quality of care.
Kamloops offers high-level, specialty medical care including Cardiology, Critical Care, Dermatology, Neurology, Infectious Disease, Internal Medicine, Medical Oncology, Nephrology, Respirology, and Rheumatology. Diagnostics offered include a Clinical Neurophysiology Lab and Sleep Lab, MRI, two CT scans, and Echocardiography. RIH is the regional base for the High Acuity Response Team (HART) that transports critically ill patients throughout the region. Surgical services include General Surgery, Neurosurgery, Vascular Surgery, Otolaryngology, Orthopedics, Ophthalmology, Plastic Surgery, Urology, Obstetrics and Gynecology.
Practice details
A dynamic, collegial and lifestyle oriented 32 person group is looking to add additional team members, and encourage both full time and part time applicants.
We work under an APP contract for emergency and a MOCAP contract for our Trauma Team Leader (TTL) program, working 14 shifts a month between the two programs (if you are full time). This leaves plenty of time to take advantage of the outdoor wonderland that surrounds Kamloops. Enjoy skiing at Sun Peaks or the back country, mountain biking year round, beautiful lakes, golf courses and world class sports facilities in the Tournament Capital Centre. And you instantly have 32 friends to do these activities with!
Royal Inland Hospital is a one of the two tertiary care hospitals in the interior of British Columbia. Our department sees approximately 75,000 visits per year and is the third busiest trauma centre in BC.
Our group maintains current practice standards by holding monthly journal clubs, quality rounds and trauma rounds often at our homes, combining learning and socializing. Our learners include 3rd year medical students doing their core rotations in our hospital, 4th year students on electives, a family practice residency program with 8 residents per year, and starting in 2023 a third year CCFP EM program with 2 residents per year.
The Phil and Jennie Gaglardi Tower opened at RIH in the summer of 2022. The tower includes new operating rooms and surgical services suite, more beds, respiratory therapy services, mental-health and substance-use inpatient unit, obstetrics services, labour and delivery and a rooftop helipad.
A new Pediatric Unit opened at RIH in July 2024 which includes 9 individual rooms, including an isolation room, procedure and Outpatient Clinic rooms and amenities which are designed to enhance family centered care.
In this position you also have the opportunity to teach as RIH is a UBC site for the Faculty of Medicine including medical students and residents.
The Teck Emergency Department renovation and expansion is underway in a new era for RIH, and will take place in phases, Phase 1 is scheduled to open in the Fall of 2024. Phase 2 renovations are scheduled to be complete in 2025. When finished, the department will offer expanded care and enhanced patient outcomes in one of the busiest emergency/trauma centres in British Columbia’s interior region.
In addition to seeking permanent members we are looking for short or long terms locums immediately, until we have completed our hiring.
Candidates with their CCFPEM, FRCPC or ABEM are encouraged to apply.
