Emergency Medicine Physician - Trenton Memorial Hospital

The Division of Emergency Medicine at Quinte Health Trenton Memorial Hospital is seeking additional emergency medicine physicians.

The Trenton Memorial Hospital Emergency Department (TMH ED) sees over 34,000 cases annually and has a dynamic team of physicians and staff. The hospital has full PACS capabilities and there is an on-site CT scanner. Physicians have access to an MRI at the Belleville General Hospital site, as well as 24-hour support from family medicine, internal medicine, intensive care, general surgery, orthopaedics, urology, pediatrics, anesthesia, obstetrics and gynaecology, psychiatry, otolaryngology, and radiology.

Emergency physicians with CCFP-EM or FRCPC-EM designations are preferred, but we are open to physicians with the ability to work as either primary or secondary (fast track) emergency physicians. Physicians with CCFP who have considerable emergency medicine experience and interest will also be considered. Applicants must be current with ACLS and ATLS certifications and have a valid license with CPSO.

The TMH ED utilizes nurse practitioners for 12 hours a day and dual physician coverage for 9 hours a day to assist with patient volumes and ensure timely patient throughput.

The Trenton Memorial Hospital Emergency Department is part of an Alternate Payment Plan so physicians are paid in accordance with this agreement.

Emergency Medicine physician opportunities are also available at our North Hastings Hospital, Belleville General Hospital, and Prince Edward County Memorial Hospital with physicians, if interested, able to work at more than one site. Emergency Medicine work can also be easily combined with Family Medicine opportunities.
