Job Description
Hospital Details
North Central Baptist Hospital features separate adult and pediatric Emergency Departments to meet the needs of the San Antonio community and surrounding areas. Ranked a U.S. News and World Report Best Hospital in 2013-14, and most recently ranked by the same agency as the #1 Hospital System in San Antonio in 2023, North Central Baptist Hospital prides itself on providing top-tier care for patients. The hospital offers extraordinary Cardiovascular and Labor & Delivery programs, with emergent PCI and OB services available on-site. Clinicians enjoy a simple "one call" system for admissions and transfers and NPs and PAs practice independently in the ED, meaning Physicians have no APP charts to sign.
Community
San Antonio is a city rich in history, culture, education, and recreation. Residents enjoy all the advantages of living in a large city without sacrificing a sense of community and small-town vibe. Home of the Alamo, the San Antonio Spurs, and the famous River Walk promenade lined with cafes and shops, there is always something of interest to enjoy. Residential opportunities abound with historic, downtown area bungalows, beautiful established estate homes, suburbs with outstanding public-school systems, and rural areas for those preferring wide, open space. In addition to UT at San Antonio, there are numerous colleges and universities nearby.
