Overview Northern Health is seeking a Family Practitioner to provide part-time or full-time primary care services and on-call ER coverage in Hazelton, BC at Wrinch Memorial Hospital and Medical Clinic. Compensation is based on an Alternative Payment Plan. The Wrinch Medical Staff provides full-scope care to the region and is made up of 10-12 Family Physicians filling 7.5 FTE, 1 GP-Anesthetist, 2 Nurse Practitioners, and 2 Registered Midwives who have an incredibly collaborative model of care. In spring 2020, the Physicians and Nurse Practitioners implemented a Provider Partnership model wherein each part-time GP is paired with another provider. Each provider is responsible for their own patient panel; in their absence they rely on their partner to help cover urgent cases and check in on critical results. Partners work together to ensure cross-coverage for time off. The selected candidate will be paired with an existing provider to ensure a smooth onboarding experience. Teaching is a time-honored tradition in Hazelton. There is an ongoing rotation of Medical Students, Nurse Practitioner Students, Midwifery Students and Medical Residents. Many providers also do outreach clinics once a week in the outlying communities (Sik-e-dakh, Anxpayawx, Gitsegukla, Gitwangak, Gitanyow) at on-reserve Health Stations. Learners will often be scheduled to accompany their preceptors for these clinics.
