ANESTHESIOLOGIST Opportunity in the Beautiful Northern Mariana Islands

  • ACLS/BLS required
  • CNMI license required. (Application process supported by Human Resources staff)

JOB DESCRIPTION:

We are a remote island, and the only hospital and ICU available. Our patients have no other facility to divert to, no medivac service to a larger hospital. We are it. Except as noted below, subspecialty referral is NOT available and the successful applicant will need to become comfortable in providing care in a resource-limited environment. Nevertheless, the expected standard of care is that of a specialty clinic

anywhere else in the U.S.

Our acuity runs from minor to severe, and most of our patients have multiple medical issues compounded by financial and social restraints. Length of hospital stay for some patients tends to be longer on the island as there are no nursing homes/halfway houses.


BENEFITS:

  • International flight from point of recruitment for employee, spouse, and dependents. Return flight to original embarkation is included and will be arranged upon completion of contract
  • Malpractice coverage is provided under the Tort Claims act
  • Annual Leave: Eight (8) hours per pay period (bi-weekly), on a full-time Employment Contract
  • Sick Leave: Four (4) hours per pay period (bi-weekly)
  • Health and Life Group Insurance: Cost-sharing per Corporate policies; Insurance: AETNA Health Insurance
  • Life Insurance: Individual Assurance Company Life, Health, & Accident (IAC)
  • 401a Retirement Plan Option: ASC Trust Corporation
  • National Health Service Corp site. Those interested can apply for loan repayment

What is great about this job:

  • Tropical island climate without seasons, steady average temp of 84 degrees with occasional short rain showers.
  • World-class snorkeling and dive spots in crystal-clear waters.
  • Affordable jumping-off point for exploring Asia, Australia, and the Western Pacific islands.
  • Fascinating WWII and Pacific Islander historical sites.
  • Tort reform area with minimal risk of litigation based on CNMI laws.
