Ø A vacancy is identified due to a practitioner leaving the community or retiring. Ø In the event that there is a need for an increase to the complement of medical staff. How to recruit to a vacant position on the Physician Human Resource Master Plan? 1. When the Medical Director determines an increase to the medical staff is appropriate for a community or department, the first step is to determine if there is room on the Master Plan. 2. If there is room, the vacancy is presented to the Northern Health (NH) Medical Advisory Committee for a recommendation to the NH Board of Directors for inclusion on the Urgent Priority List. 3. The vacancy is then posted, and a recruitment strategy is developed in consultation with the Medical Director. 4. If there is not room on the Master Plan, this indicates that NH has recruited to the maximum number of physicians specified for that community or department. 5. To increase the number of positions on the Master Plan, a Preliminary Impact Assessment must be submitted to the NH Medical Advisory Committee for recommendation to the NH Board of Directors. The Impact Assessment is a comprehensive report outlining evidence of need and requires the following considerations: Data on local and regional roles this position may fulfill. Clinical and academic mandates must be considered. The implications of the position not being approved must be identified. Deliverables and consequences are required and will include items such as reduced wait times, changes in standard of care, etc. The patient care consequence if the position is not added should also be indicated. Staffing and operational resources required to support this additional position must be specified. Operational resources will include bed capacity, sterile processing, housekeeping, etc. Capital equipment requirements are important elements of this submission as well. Space requirements and overall costs must also be included. 6. If an internal Northern Health Impact Assessment receives approval by the Board of Directors, the Physician Human Resource Master Plan is updated. The position is then added to the Urgent Priority List*, the vacancy is posted, and a recruitment strategy is developed in consultation with the Medical Director. * The vacancies on the Urgent Priority List guide recruitment efforts. In order to access funding for site visits, a vacancy must be placed on the urgent priority list. Page 3 of 24
