My name is Jason Long with ProTouch Staffing. We have a Cardiac Center we are partnered with in Central Arkansas in need of a Locum CV Anesthesiologist.

Importantly, this Anesthesiologist must be available to cover 07/15-07/19.

Schedule/Availability Requirements:
  • Mon - Fri 7a-3p
  • PROVIDER MUST BE AVAILABLE TO COVER: 7/15-7/19

Details:
  • Setting: Level II Trauma Center, Strong CV program
  • FTE: 1.0
  • Duties: Performing anesthesia in CV cases, supervising CV CRNA(s), performing TEEs, and placing epidurals.
  • Required Procedures: Facile with TEE and comfortable doing all CV cases, excluding transplants, including Ecmo and thoracic cases. Able to perform epidurals.

Additional Details / Questions Answered by Facility:
  • Ratio of MDs to CRNAs on a daily basis? -1
  • Are there any times during the day/on-call that our provider will be running their own room? Occasionally, if the need arises but someone will take over your supervision of the CRNAs.
  • Any responsibilities for cases aside from cardiac/vascular/thoracic? Possibly, if the CV caseload is down on a certain day.
  • Do we have any idea of typical volumes of cases, including open hearts? Two ORs running most of the day. Will get case volume and send.
  • Is a cardiac fellowship required? Is a TEE certification required? I don't believe fellowship is required but TEE certification would be helpful.
  • Open to non-licensed candidates? Can we license/privilege simultaneously? If they have an Arkansas license it would obviously help with expediting the process.
  • Regarding call: What are the start and end times of the weeknight and weekend primary and backup pager calls? Not needed.
  • Is this 100% supervision? YES
  • What TEE system is used? Phillips with x8 probes? Siemens

  • Can you confirm this position is 100% supervised. Yes
  • Are 10 hr shifts 7a-5p an option with OT after 50? Shifts are 7a-3p, historically locums have been the first out at 3pm
