OB/GYN details

- The clinic (1381 Medical Center Drive) is located adjacent to ECU North Hospital: https://goo.gl/maps/XNmxHXkTdjcyhNoL7
- Rural Health Group is a separate organization from the hospital - our OB/GYNs have privileges and call there, but it is not a hospital practice. The organization is a 501(c)3 private corporation with a patient-majority board of directors and designated as a Federally Qualified Health Center.
- OB/GYNs have one day per week surgery, the rest in outpatient clinic, with four hours of designated administrative time per week. The OB/GYN typically sees 20 patients per day in the outpatient clinic.
- The mix of patients (OB vs GYN) fluctuates based on demand/referrals. Deliveries are approximately 25-30 per month for the group. GYN procedures vary based on referrals - we accept patients from internal and external providers. Clinic days are allocated for GYN care and procedures. Procedure appointments are 30 - 60 minutes.
- This is a rural, underserved community so there are a number of high risk patients for both OB and GYN
- The call schedule will most likely be 1:2 weekdays (8a Mon - 5p Fri) and 1:4 weekends (5p Fri - 8a Mon). The goal is to extend the call rotation to 1:3 weekdays and 1:4 weekends.
- Office Staff: RNs/LPNs in the office, RN Case Manager, sonographer, RN Clinical Practice Manager, front desk staff and billing staff
- Board certification (or board-eligible if resident) and BLS required; NRP is required for hospital privileges
- The hospital does not have DaVinci at this time.
- Rural Health Group uses eClinicalWorks (eCW) EMR, the hospital uses EPIC (experience with one or both is a plus, but not required)
Successful candidates will demonstrate the Rural Health Group Core Competencies, which include:
- Good Judgment
- Communication/Customer Service/Teamwork
- Passion
- Honesty
- Responsibility
- Job-Specific Skill Set
