Job Details

Provide safe, high-quality patient care as a physician on the emergency department (ED) team at Vaughan Regional Medical Center in Selma, Alabama. Vaughan Regional Medical Center's Emergency Department serves Dallas and surrounding counties 24 hours, seven days a week, treating more than 28,000 patients annually. The 17-bed ED is staffed with experienced physicians and nurses specifically trained in emergency medicine. Four of the 17 beds are on fast track. Qualified physician coverage is provided during peak hours. There is 31 hours of daily physician coverage and 18 hours of midlevel coverage daily. The admission rate is 14% with 25% pediatrics seen. Some specialty back up coverage is provided. The ED was recently renovated and expanded, a $2.5 million dollar investment in the Selma facility. Renovations include an additional 2,500 square feet to the existing ED, two new state-of-the-art trauma rooms, as well as new and expanded waiting, triage and registration areas. A new front entrance canopy area was also added for patient convenience. For more than 40 years, our history and national footprint in emergency medicine allows us to achieve the highest standards in care, informed by decades of evidence-based data. To that end, we've created robust risk management programs to help our clinicians feel confident in their work. We harness a nationwide collection of tools, clinical resources and collective knowledge for our emergency medicine clinicians who provide the best for their patients.
