Hospice/Palliative Medicine Physician Assistant

In 2020 united in a fierce commitment to deliver the highest quality care and exceptional patient experience Virginia Mason and CHI Franciscan Health came together as natural partners to build a new health system centered around the patient: Virginia Mason Franciscan Health. Our combined system builds upon the scale and expertise of our nearly 300 sites of care including 11 hospitals and nearly 5000 physicians and providers. Together we are empowered to make an even greater impact on the health and well-being of our communities.

Virginia Mason, a historic and dynamic community hospital in the center of beautiful Seattle, Washington, has an opening for a Per Diem Palliative Care Physician in its growing Palliative Care Program.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a passionate and energetic team. The current program is primarily focused on hospital-based consultative Palliative Care with a growing presence in the outpatient setting. The team's vision is to provide comprehensive palliative care services to any patient and family dealing with a serious illness, regardless of where they are in the Virginia Mason organization. We are looking for a Palliative Care physician who matches our current enthusiasm for transforming how Palliative Care is delivered at Virginia Mason.

We are seeking a PRN Palliative Care Physician to provide essential coverage, typically a few shifts per month, to support our existing team during physician absences.
