If you are working as a full time physician, why would you consider locum tenens assignments during your vacation time?
The first answer is financial. You are already compensated for your vacation time. When you come to work on an assignment with us for a week or two, we pay very competitive rates. These two factors combined often amount to a considerable amount of additional income. Income you can use to repay student loans or build a nest egg.
Additionally, many of our assignments are in very desirable locations with well defined work hours. Take your family with you - explore a new location with the added benefit of local co-workers to point you to some of the sites only locals know. If you work multiple assignments through the year, the possibilities are endless.
Physicians often return from short term locum "breaks" revitalized. The exposure to another practice provides new approaches and ideas. Different patient populations can provide cultural and language learning experiences.
Of course, your Locum Medical staffing consultant will approach a vacation assignment with the same care and knowledge we apply to all locum assignments. We take care of the details from travel arrangements to malpractice coverage. We will make sure that you are knowledgeable about and comfortable with the work you will be doing.
Interested? The best way to start is to call us, or visit our physician registration page and indicate your interest in vacation assignments. One of our consultants will call you to discuss how you would like your work to work.
