This is a full time hospitalist position. Hospitalists play a valuable role on the core service team at Royal Inland Hospital (RIH). While working in close collaboration with the General Internal Medicine Service, the primary responsibility of the Hospitalist is to provide General Medical Care for adult medical and surgical patients at this busy referral center, as many of our patients are geriatric and have multiple co-morbidities. This role may include being the only doctor involved, most responsible physician (MRP), or to provide medical care for Orthopedics, Psychiatry, Trauma and/or other co-managed patients. This is a very diverse and rewarding position as one always works in a highly-valued, positive environment.
