New Provincial Locum Recruitment Program Available for Physicians

The provincial government and NL Health Services have launched a Provincial Locum Recruitment Program.
The program provides opportunities for physicians to work as locums throughout the province, including communities that have had recruitment challenges.
There are incentives are available to locum physicians employed by NL Health Services and private practice locum physicians, including a locum bonus of $10,000 for physicians who provide more than 25 days of locum services per fiscal year.
Physicians interested in providing locum services can register online at www.workinhealthnl.ca/. Physicians interested in new locum opportunities with private community-based practices are also encouraged to e-mail medservicesprograms@gov.nl.ca for more information.
Since April 2023, over 145 doctors have agreed to work in the province.
