1. What is the schedule and hours of work? What kind of procedures they will be doing? If they have subspecialty support or not? What is the workload, patient volume/shift?

Gallup Indian Medical Center sees 30,000 pts/year. We are a level 3 trauma center for the McKinley area. We see from 80 to 100 pts/day. Our ED is busy and our acuity is high. Our shifts are 10 hours shifts with midlevel support. We have needs in the day, evenings and nights. Our highest volumes are between 4 P.M. to midnight. Our shifts hours are as follows for MDs/DOs 7 A.M. to 5 P.M., 11 A.M. to 9 P.M., 4 P.M. to 2 A.M. and 9 P.M. to 7 A.M. Physicians can work initially a maximum of five shifts then rest then work some more shifts. Our adult patients compromise 70% of our volume and our pediatric is 30%.

Our ED also consists of a Fast Track clinic for our lower acuity patients which is managed mostly by our mid-levels. ED providers do not admit patients to the hospital as we have other services that take care of admissions such as hospitalist, pediatrics, OB/GYN, orthopedics, surgery, optometry, behavioral health, podiatry, anesthesia and ENT providers. Our department also has an X-Ray and CT, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We have U/S every day from 8 A.M. to 4 P.M.

and on call after 4 P.M. when available. Most of our transfers are to Albuquerque for Neurosurgical cases, significant polytrauma, STEMIs, Stroke that receives thrombolytics, urological cases, and pediatric ICU cases.
