Community ICU job located in the Midwest (remote, cold)
Closed ICU, 15 bed, average census 9-10
24wks/yr, with paid time off
7 on/7 off, 7am-7pm; 1 intensivist/shift, offer for daytime only, No night calls
Will cover rapid response and codes
Separate night intensivist
No NP/PA; No residents
250 bed hospital
Base W2 pay: 432k/yr (2019 Midwest MGMA median = 424k/yr)
401k/503b/457b matching etc
The rapids/codes is an issue for me; how often do community intensivists cover rapids and codes? what happens if a patient is crashing in the ICU and a code is called at same time, since no resident or PA? All these while in training, there have been other fellows/resident/attending around.
Still negotiating with recruiter about other benefits like sign on bonus, potential to raise base pay further given remote location, and vacation instead of paid time off.
Anything else I'm missing?
