At Cary Medical Center, we understand that physicians have a life beyond medicine. It is our approachable, supportive style and the Cary culture that sets us apart from other hospitals.
Cary Medical Center currently has a need for two full-time Emergency Room Physicians. The newly renovated, 24-hour ED sees about 19,000 visits per year, including the Walk-In Clinic. The ED is a Level II trauma center, and sees a wide variety of cases; however, head and neck cases are transported to a tertiary center. The physicians and nursing staff are specially trained in emergency medicine. The department has one trauma room and 11 exam rooms; two Walk-In Care rooms with easy access to all diagnostic testing needs. Although patients are seen in order of severity of illness, a PA or Nurse Practitioner in the Walk-In Clinic may see patients with less urgent needs.
The ER physicians typically develop their own shifts, and generally work three shifts one week and four the next. In addition to working a full-time schedule, Cary can offer a flexible staffing model, such as per diem, and part-time; working site visits are welcomed.
Currently, there are two full-time, board certified ER physicians on staff. Dr. Dan Harrigan has been an ER physician at Cary for over 25 years and is the Senior Emergency Medicine Physician. Dr. Beth Collamore has been at Cary for over eight years after completing an ER residency at the University of Massachusetts, Worcester. In Caribou, Maine, it's natural for patients to appreciate their doctors. We invite you to experience life in a safe, family-centered community just as Drs. Harrigan and Collamore and their families have done.
Cary Medical Center is one of four rural hospitals in Aroostook County; the Emergency Department boasts the highest patient volume of all four hospitals. The majority of our ER patients are elderly with cardiac and respiratory complaints comprising a good portion of our visits, along with the expected primary care and emergent care visits. Our largest patient transfers consist of psychiatric, trauma, neurosurgical, and emergency cardiac catheterizations. Cary utilizes the services of a fixed-wing air ambulance service with a 40-minute in-air time to Bangor, Maine, location of the nearest Level 1 Trauma Center and Cardiac Cath Lab.
The ER physicians are employees of the hospital and will be paid on an hourly basis, negotiable based on experience. The hospital will pay a portion of the health insurance for the physician and will pay the full amount of malpractice insurance. Additionally, the hospital will pay up to $600/year for licensing and subscriptions for their practice. The candidate will receive six weeks for vacation, CME, sick and holiday time to be used on an annual basis. The hospital will also provide CME of up to $2,500 per year and relocation assistance. Education loan repayment is paid in six-month increments and is typically spread out over five years.
Opportunity requirements:
Board certified or board eligible in Emergency Medicine or board certified or board eligible with a primary care board and ER experience. Allopathic and osteopathic physicians will be considered equally. American born and trained physicians and foreign-born physicians who have completed a US residency and/or fellowship will be considered equally. HIB candidates will be considered.
