To our prospective teammates,
I’m the medical director for Kaweah Health located in Visalia, CA. I have been a part of Sound Medical Group for 5 year(s) and part of the practice at Kaweah for a little over a year.
I’m proud of the Critical Care practice we have built and welcome interest from Critical Care NP’s and PA’s desiring a career change to explore an opportunity with our group.
I’d like to share more about it, specifically about our people, practice, and purpose , as you consider options :
People
- We are a closely knit, established team of 10 physicians and soon enough, 2 Advanced Practice Providers
- Our team is involved with numerous work groups including practice guidelines, code blue committee, and ICU celebration of life committee.
- Several physicians live in Fresno / Clovis and commute. We also have team members who commute from Los Angeles.
- Our location is the gateway to the Sierra Mountain Range. We are about an hour from Kings Canyon, Yosemite, and Sierra National Forrest.
Year-round Mediterranean climate with access to excellent hiking and outdoor activities. Overall low cost of living and exceptional schools makes for an excellent place to call home.
Practice
- Kaweah is a 600-bed level III trauma center and a stroke center with 310 inpatient beds. We provide care in a 21 bed MICU, 20 bed CVICU, and 42 bed ICCU.
- At night an APP will cover the ICCU with tele-ICU physician support. An Intensivist will cover the MICU and CVICU overnight.
- The ICCU is an extension of the MICU this in opportunity to practice at the top of your license as a critical care NP / PA.
We have insulin drips, low-dose pressors, BiPAP, trach, and vented patients. APP has support via Tele-ICU MD, but will work independently, performing ICU procedures (central lines, arterial lines, and intubations).
One year of ICU experience is desired although we are open to Hospitalist NP / PA’s who have experience with ICU procedures.
- Salary range working 15 nights per month is $263,520. Salary will vary depending on critical care experience and shift commitment.
- We offer relocation assistance and commencement bonus.
- Benefits include medical, dental, vision, life and AD&D insurance, long- and short-term disability, 401k, paid medical malpractice and tail coverage, and annual CME allowance.
Purpose
- We put patients first. Always.
- We value and support growth and development in our hospital medicine practice, allowing you to explore new opportunities locally and within the broader medical group.
- We’re a community-minded team and support involvement and contributions to community health and wellness in and out of the hospital.
