Responsibilities/Duties Alberta Health Services is inviting applications from Family Physicians to join the Department of Family Medicine with special interest in Family Medicine Obstetrics (FMOB) in Edmonton under a joint partnership with AHS and the Mom Care Docs group. The Mom Care Docs clinic has 13 family doctors and is supported by a PCN funded RN. The recruited physician would be required to work at our office at The Allin Clinic and to provide inpatient care at the Royal Alexandra Hospital. The typical model involves coverage for inpatient care for 24 hours on one week and then working in the clinic for a day on the next week. Weekend coverage is also required for 24 hours approximately once per month. We use the Accuro EMR at The Allin Clinic. Care is provided for patients throughout the pregnancy and for up to 6 weeks post-partum. We are also a teaching clinic affiliated with the University of Alberta and as such train medical students and resident physicians. The Mom Care Docs clinic has expanded its scope and now also provides outpatient well baby care for unattached babies until 6 weeks of age. We are a group of family physicians who also provide low risk obstetrical care and as such, our preferred candidate would be willing to provide family medicine services at The Allin Clinic alongside their work in FMOB. Mom Care Docs works in a shared patient care model. We have group protocols, in line with SOCG Guidelines and Evidence Based Medicine, which allow us to provide seamless patient care. This is achieved in part, through attendance at remunerated monthly business meetings (in person or virtually) and the recruited physician is required to attend these meetings. The Royal Alexandra Hospital (RAH) is a tertiary hospital where family physicians work alongside obstetrics and gynecology and multiple subspecialties including on site NICU. Together the obstetrical program preforms about 7500 deliveries per year. Edmonton Corridor hospitals are affiliated with the University of Alberta, and serve as important training facilities for residents and students. The Faculty of Medicine & Dentistry has been internationally recognized as among the world’s top 50 medical schools and as one of Canada’s premier health-education institutions.
