This would be building an outpatient Psychiatry program. CPH has an existing Behavioral Health team of Psychologists & Social Works that collaborate with the ED now, but we are looking to add the initial Psychiatrist. We have a NP that will be finishing her training to be a PSY NP, and we would look to bring on one additional NP to complete the team.
The overall job will be a general Outpatient Psychiatry position. We have no inpatient unit, any patient that would need to be admitted would be sent to Anchorage. There is a need for Pediatrics, but that is not a requirement at all.
In addition to the hospital, we have a new 83K sq/ft Medical Office Building, an Oncology infusion center, 54-bed long term care rehab center, sleep lab and a large Behavioral Health facility with a 10-bed detox center.
Down the road there has been talks of building out a 23-hour Psychiatry hold facility, but that is not confirmed yet. Overall, we are looking for one Psychiatrist to build and run the program, as it builds, we would potentially look for additional providers but the main goal is for one dedicated physician to start the program. .
