What is the Physician Network Resource Pool?

The Physician Network Resource Pool is a project based team that services 80+ physician practice locations owned by Lexington Medical Center.  Our team consists of RN’s, LPN’s, Certified/Registered Medical Assistants, Radiologic Technologists, Ultrasound Sonographers and Business Office Associates.  The Resource Pool was designed and created to provide long term supplemental coverage for our doctor’s offices.  We cover maternity leaves, medical leaves, FMLA, scheduled vacations, military leaves and vacant positions.  Most of our coverage requests are long term, up to 12 weeks (or longer) at each location.  Because we are covering for full time employees, the average hours are 40 hrs per week, Mon-Fri.  We function similarly to a Staffing Model, placing our team members in assignments/projects based upon their skillset and requested need.  We partner with our team members to find the “right fit”, welcoming their feedback regarding location, hours, specialty and other specific targets.  Our ultimate goal is to find a long term, full time home for each employee.  We transfer 10-12 team members per month into full time opportunity at LMC.

These are excellent opportunities for new grads that need to gain some experience and explore various specialties and opportunities, candidates relocating into the area that would like to familiarize themselves with our health system and learn our EHR, candidates re-entering the healthcare workforce and seeking to refresh their skills. We provide great training, the ability to network within our physician practices, the option of trying on environments to potentially find a long term home and fit in one of our offices.  Most team members find full time placement fairly quickly and there is no waiting period for a transfer should a team member find a “home” right out of the gate.

Candidates should be able to work at least 3-5 full days per week (8-5), the average placement is Monday thru Friday/ 40 hrs per week, but we can accommodate a 3-4 day week if needed.  These are resource/PRN positions, so we utilize the team members as requested, however, the model of the float pool is designed to cover full time employees that are out for a variety of reasons (2-12 weeks). Ideal availability would be a standard day shift Monday-Friday 8-5.
