    About hospitalist jobs

    Hospital medicine is defined by its schedule. Seven-on, seven-off is the standard, but block length, shift length, day versus night, swing shifts, and how holidays are handled vary widely, and each pattern attracts a different physician. The openings on our board are searches hospitals and health systems have hired MedStaff Nationwide to fill, and the schedule is the first thing we confirm with every employer.
