Job Description Discover what’s possible in your career as a
Hospital Medicine Physician in Dyersburg, Tennessee. We believe in
bringing "better" to our local community in Dyersburg—better care,
better collaboration, and a deep commitment to the people we serve.
We'd love to talk if you're looking for a role that supports your
professional growth and connection to a vibrant community. We are
hiring for both a hospitalist and a nocturnist position. Our
nocturnist role requires working exclusively overnight shifts.
Nocturnist candidates must be comfortable with a nocturnal schedule
and possess the ability to deliver exceptional patient care during
nighttime hours. Local Team Collaboration: We are seeking
hospitalists and nocturnists to join our close-knit,
well-established team of 8 physicians, 1 advanced practice provider
(APP), and the invaluable support of a clinical performance nurse
at West Tennessee Healthcare Dyersburg Hospital. Our team meets
monthly to review performance metrics, address group matters, and
collaborate on solutions to improve patient care. Work alongside a
dedicated, high-performing team supported by a clinical performance
nurse, with access to resources that foster individual and team
success. Qualifications: Board certification or board eligibility
in the relevant specialty. A commitment to teamwork, clinical
excellence, and providing patient-centered care. Authorized to work
in the United States Scheduling: We value work-life balance, with
the option for a flexible schedule and a commitment to covering for
one another when a team member is on leave. Our standard rotation
is 7-days on and 7-days off, spanning Monday through Sunday. Key
Responsibilities: Provide high-quality care through a daily
rounding model involving three providers, with an average patient
census of 12-15 per provider. On-call periods include admissions
ranging from zero to a maximum of four to five patients. Work
closely with a multidisciplinary team that includes cardiology,
pulmonology, nephrology, general surgery, urology, GI,
endocrinology, orthopedics, and wound care specialists. Collaborate
with a dedicated nocturnist for 7p-7a coverage and work alongside
advanced practice providers (APPs) from Bethel University to
contribute to teaching and expanding educational services. Engage
in challenging cases within an open ICU setting, where our diverse
services—such as interventional cardiology, pulmonology, and
nephrology—support comprehensive patient care. Living and Working
in Dyersburg: People are drawn to Dyersburg, Tennessee, for its
serene, small-town atmosphere and the genuine sense of community
that prevails. The town’s welcoming environment and affordable cost
of living make it an ideal place to call home. We are a
community-minded team, encouraging members to make meaningful
contributions both within the hospital and beyond. Together, we
work to foster the health and well-being of Dyersburg, making a
positive impact locally. Compensation: Competitive salary with
opportunities for bonuses based on performance and growth, and a
$60,000 commencement bonus. Addie Pierce, Clinical Recruiter |
