What can you expect from a locum tenens job?

Locum tenens jobs are temporary assignments to fill in for staff absences or meet other care needs in frequently understaffed settings (especially anesthesiology, hospital medicine and emergency medicine).

For doctors and advanced practitioners, locum jobs offer a wealth of opportunities to help facilities serve their communities on either a full-time or part-time basis, and without making a long-term commitment, while a new professional is soured and hired.
