Hospitalist Physician

To our prospective teammates, I'm the medical director for Rockville General located in Vernon, Connecticut, just 20 minutes outside of Hartford. I'm proud of the hospital medicine practice we've built and welcome interest from physicians coming out of training or looking to make a career change. I'd like to share more about who we are and what we do - specifically about our people, practice, and purpose - as you consider your options: People * We're a small talented team of two physicians, who collaborate with other hospital staff and departments to bring the best possible quality of care to our patients. * Rockville General is part of Eastern Connecticut Health Network (ECHN) along with Manchester Memorial Hospital. * We are fortunate to have the strong presence of a site coordinator who helps to provide the team with a good work life balance. * Our clinical performance nurse assists you in the process of providing a high patient care experience. * Vernon is a vibrant, diverse community that is home to Trinity College, one of the nation's oldest institutions of higher learning. Strategically located between New York and Boston as well as being just a stone's throw away from the Connecticut and Rhode Island shoreline. Practice * The hospital has 100 beds. There is no medical unit or ICU. We're looking for a board-certified/eligible physician with hospitalist experience/training.
