Emergency Physician Needed In The Superior Northern California
Mercy Medical Center Redding (MMCR) is a Level 2 Trauma Center that serves 20% of the land mass of California. We get patients flown in from the coast (Eureka, Fortuna, Crescent City) and the Oregon and Nevada borders. MMCR is an excellent full-service community hospital with a dedicated medical staff and great back-up - we have nearly every service available except PICU, Plastic Surgery, and burn. We have 24-hour OB coverage and a Level III NICU, along with 24-hour in-house critical care and Vituity Hospitalists and Vituity Anesthesiologists. It is a challenging and busy hospital with fairly high acuity, plenty of action and chances to use your skills, and a beautiful 28 bed department with 2 additional trauma beds, with windows looking at Mt. Shasta. We currently staff 54 hours/day of physician coverage and 27 hours/day of PA/NP coverage and have a dedicated PA/NP in RME (triage/front end), with Physician in Triage about 20 hours/day. We see about 58,000 patients/year. The hospital and nearby community health clinic both have family medicine residencies that send residents through our department, and all of us have volunteer faculty appointments through UC Davis and enjoy teaching them. St. Elizabeth Community Hospital (SECH) is located in Red Bluff, CA, about 30 miles south of Redding, and is a busy small community hospital seeing about 30,000 patients/year. It is a Level 3 Trauma Center with an inpatient hospitalist service and good pediatric, OB, orthopedic, and surgical backup. Anything that can't be handled at SECH is usually easily and smoothly transferred to MMCR. Although the acuity is generally lower than at MMCR, it is a fast-moving and fun department to work in with an excellent dedicated staff, many of whom have been there for 10+ years. It is a close knit ED with an excellent esprit de corps. Vituity is a national health care organization. Physician-owned and operated. Providing specialty services in Anesthesiology, Emergency Medicine, Critical Care, Hospital Medicine, Neurology, Outpatient Care, Psychiatry, and Telehealth. Each location Vituity provides services operates as its own entity and has the ability to make decisions that are best for that particular group. All Physicians are treated and paid as an equal partner regardless of the time with the group.
