extended assignments
Life and careers are full of transitions. And at some point in your professional life, you may find yourself wanting a full-time job, without the commitment of owning or running your own practice. Perhaps you’ve got some time before you start a fellowship. Maybe you are still searching for that perfect and fulfilling specialty, or simply want to work a few more years before retiring — without the responsibility of managing a practice.
Through extended assignments that last a year, Medstaff helps you to maximize the potential of those periods in your career when you want the steadiness of full-time work without taking a permanent position. We'll take care of all the details, from finding the position and location that match your professional and personal interests, to assisting in licensure, credentials, and privileges, as well as providing comprehensive liability insurance.
In addition to the flexibility of working full time without the obligations that accompany running a practice, an extended assignment allows you to explore fully new communities that might one day become a permanent home, discover whether a position or location is right for you and your career track, and earn a higher-than-traditional locum tenens wage as you explore your options. Medstaff will cover your housing and transportation costs, as well as your liability insurance, and we provide this service at no charge to you.
