Arc Health is actively seeking a ABEM certified Emergency Medicine Physician to provide emergency medicine care at an IHS facility in Crownpoint, NM as soon as credentialed.
Crownpoint, located in northwestern New Mexico within the Navajo Nation, is a small town with ties to agriculture and ranching. The community embraces Navajo traditions, offering a cultural experience shaped by the rich heritage of the Navajo people.
The Facility serves a population of 20,000 Navajo people. The staff consists of primary care physicians, physician assistants, and nurse practitioners, at a 20 bed hospital. FY20 showed a daily inpatient load of 4, outpatient visits was 129,239; annual OB visits at 717, and the annual emergency room cases number of about 14,643.
Physicians find they have ample opportunities to practice all the skills they trained for in residency, in multi-specialty but non-departmental setting with continuous back up from colleagues and excellent nursing support in all areas of the hospital. Crownpoint is located in Northwest New Mexico, on the Eastern edge of the Navajo Reservation, only a few hours drive North to the Southern Rockies, or East to Albuquerque and Santa Fe. World Class skiing is close and the area has superb hiking and fishing opportunities.
The Facility provides many healthcare services to patients in an area covering 4,200 square miles within 4 counties in northwest New Mexico (McKinley, Cibola, Sandoval, and San Juan).
This is a unique opportunity to make a meaningful impact on the health of the Navajo Community.
