Internal Medicine Ward and ED coverage - UHN and Sinai Health

Detail:
You will be required to provide general internal medicine ward coverage at the hospital, as well as perform consultations to the intensive care units, surgical wards, and Emergency Department.

This job involves providing daytime ward coverage (rounding) and/or overnight ward coverage and performing new consultations for patients in the intensive care units (to transfer to the ward), surgical units, and emergency department. The hours will be 1700 to 1000h (following day) on weekdays, and 0800 to 1000h (following day) on weekends. Patients will have a variety of diagnoses.

Every attempt will be made to accommodate site preferences (TWH, TGH or Sinai) when booking shifts. However, under extenuating circumstances, in-the-moment flexibility may be required (i.e. a confirmed shift at TGH may be transferred to TWH or MSH and vice versa), depending on need.

As such, they will be on-site and available to review cases or help with patient management during daytime hours and will be available by phone after-hours with on-site arrival capability of approximately 30 minutes.
