You are a Family Physician seeking to diversify your experience while making a direct impact on people's lives in your chosen community.
This part-time opportunity will allow you to build your professional practise portfolio in the area of mental health and addictions, without the overhead / start-up costs that come with operating a speciality clinic.
Enjoy working within an inter-professional team, with full access to the Electronic Medical Records (EMR) system to support delivery of comprehensive patient care.
Your good care is someone's future opportunity.
For the last sixteen years, I have practiced Correctional Medicine and I love it. There is never a dull moment; seeing interesting and complex medical patients in a safe environment.
I have excellent nursing and administrative support, work part time, and really enjoy working as part of a multidisciplinary team.
There is no overhead working in the jail and enjoy good remuneration. I would recommend working in Correctional Medicine to anyone with experience in mental health and addictions and who has a desire to make a difference in the lives of inmate-patients."

What you'll do
We are seeking a Family Practitioner (FP) at the Alouette Correctional Centre to help us improve access to primary health care as well as mental health and substance use support for clients in correctional centres.
The FP is an important member of the health care team and works alongside other health care experts on a supportive and inter-professional team to provide quality care for clients and help them live an active life during their time in custody and as they reintegrate into the community.
This new model of health care provides the opportunity to grow your expertise as a Primary Care Practitioner in an environment where you are supported from day one, and where leaders and colleagues across disciplines will support you every step of the way.
Be part of a team where you can live and work in your community, positively influence an incarcerated individual's journey down a new path, and see the difference you can make as you serve the diverse populations of the BC Corrections system.
