Why Consider Neurosurgery Locum Tenens

By : Wanda Edwards

If you can't seem to find the hours that you want in your position and the only places that will look at your curriculum vitae are those clinics that you would prefer to not work at, then perhaps you should consider a neurosurgery locum tenens. Locum tenens is Latin for temporary job, and is usually reserved for medical professions and sometimes legal. Finding the right neurosurgery locum tenens for you is not a difficult task once you know how.

By approaching a private locum agency you are able to enter your degree specifications, as well as any work experience that you may have. By listing where you would prefer to work and in what environment, your locum agency consultant will be better able to match you with employers looking for someone with your talents and experience. Most often the position that is offered to a locum is one that is usually filled by a permanent practitioner. Perhaps they are on leave for a length of time, and need the position filled.

Private locum agencies are also able to present to you different locum packages for different employers that may appeal to you also. You will often find that the more far flung and distant the assignment, the better the package will be. For example, some of the positions offered in places like outback Australia and even Dubai will provide quarterly flights and accommodation, as well as vehicles and holiday allowance. Many times locums will earn a better hourly wage than a permanent positioned practitioner, however, the downfall can be that there are few patient doctor relationships formed, and the role of being forever the "new" doctor can be wearing.

Considering neurosurgery locum tenens positions could offer you the opportunity travelling to the other side of the globe and experiencing a completely different culture than you are familiar with. It can sometimes be the most rewarding time of a medical professionals career.
