What is a hospitalist locum tenens?
This term combines two concepts: locum tenens, and hospitalist. Locum tenens, latin for "to hold the place", is a person who works in place of another. Usually this is when the usual worker is sick, not yet hired (if the job was just created), on vacation, or otherwise unavailable, and someone is needed to take his or her place until he or she returns (or starts). This is a temporary position, though sometimes the locum worker can be offered a permanent job. A hospitalist is an internal medicine physician who takes care of patients exclusively in the hospital. He or she specializes in hospital care. After discharge from the hospital, the hospitalist physician will communicate with the patient's usual primary care physician, who then resumes care for the patient in the office. A locum tenens hospitalist then, is a physician who is taking care of patients in the hospital, while taking the place of the usual hospitalist who may be unavailable, or if the employer has not yet hired a full-time physician for this job, but needs someone to care for patients.
