Description
This position is for a board certified or eligible attending psychiatrist to work at the AMCH Psychiatric Services on Saturdays and Sundays, 9a-5p, three weekends per month, supervising residents and overall patient care on the 26-bed inpatient unit and the consultation-liaison service including consults in the AMC ER and on the medical floors. The psychiatrist will see designated patients with the resident on both Saturdays and Sundays and may be required to provide care separate from the resident work schedule.
In addition, consultations conducted by the AMC Psychiatry resident on-call will be seen and supervised by the psychiatrist and education on treatment planning will be provided to the on-call resident.
