Island Health has immediate opportunities for General Psychiatrists in multiple communities across the Vancouver Island region, including the beautiful city of Nanaimo.

Nanaimo’s Department of Psychiatry consists of adult, child and youth and geriatric psychiatrists working in community and acute settings. Acute services are provided at Nanaimo Regional General Hospital (NRGH), which has 224 acute care beds and a 24-bed inpatient psychiatry unit.

NRGH is a UBC Postgraduate Family Practice Residency Program site. This provides opportunities for teaching second-year family practice residents in the community.

Further, we anticipate starting a psychiatric residency electives program by 2025 where staff participation in teaching, mentorship, and supervision would be expected.

To apply, please attach your cover letter and CV to Christal Lawson at medstaffrecruitment@islandhealth.ca
