Northwest Permanente, P.C. is currently seeking a Board Certified or Eligible Pediatrician to join our medical group in Salem, Oregon. The position involves primary care paneling for both acute and routine ambulatory health care needs, inpatient pediatric and nursery rounding, as well as cross coverage. Clinic hours are spread over 4 days per week with office visits and virtual care portions.

The position is primarily at the North Lancaster Medical Office, where services include primary care (adult and pediatric), urgent care, as well as several specialty services, a full-service lab, and imaging.

Inpatient rounding is for Kaiser Permanente pediatric patients admitted to Salem Hospital in a rotating hospitalist model. Scope of inpatient practice includes routine newborn and pediatric care and limited NICU care for infants 35 weeks and older. Salem Hospital has a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit with 24/7 coverage by NNP and neonatology. Higher level of inpatient pediatric and newborn care depends on individual skills and comfort. Inpatient pediatric subspecialty care is via phone consult with Kaiser Permanente and other specialists at Doernbecher Children’s Hospital. PALS required.

Inpatient work averages one in eight weeks, with the same pediatrician covering the hospital Monday through Thursday mornings, as well as one in eight weekends (Friday through Sunday call). Weeknight call is also one in eight nights on average.
