West Hill Midwifery in Prince George, BC is seeking a locum for 3 months over the summer months (mid June to mid September) to cover for each of us while we take a break! There may be an opportunity for this to become a permanent position in September.
We are a practice of 4 midwives who work in a team model doing roughly 2 days of call and a day of clinic each per week.
Ideally, you will rotate into each midwives spot on the rota as we all take 3 weeks vacation. We will have 60 RMLP days to use between us all, and are aiming to fill the position with somebody eligible to be a RMLP RM.
Rural experience is an advantage. The ideal candidate would have good organizational skills, a strong work ethic and be familiar with/willing to learn OSCAR EMR. We have excellent administrative support from our MOA who works remotely.
Prince George is the regional centre for the North with a population of around 74,000. We benefit from a variety of shops, restaurants and leisure activities. Life often centres around the outdoors with our own ski hill, cross country skiing centre, hiking trails, lakes for swimming, fishing and boating. There is also an active arts scene and in non-Covid times the CN centre hosts big name concerts and shows. We are only a 75 minute flight to Vancouver, Victoria and Calgary for when the big city calls...
