Working with CSEP at Dignity Health - Arizona General Hospital EDs

“Burn out”, “just movin’ the meat”, “moral injury of red tape”… Are these the headlines from your last shift? If so, consider working with a group that has felt all of this and consistently works to Do Something Good for our patients. The real joy in healthcare comes from going the extra mile; going above and beyond for a patient; seeing the grateful smile and ‘thanks doc’; and experiencing empathy, listening, and caring. If that’s the way you want to practice medicine, consider working with CSEP at Dignity Health – Arizona General Hospital EDs. 

What Kind of ED Professionals Are We Looking For?

Physicians and APPs who put themselves in the shoes of our patients and work to comfort and relieve suffering. Individuals who understand what it’s like to be a patient: the worry, the unknown, and the fear associated with being injured or ill. 

Accountability

Professionals who maintain their skills and knowledge. Providers who hold respectfully themselves and others accountable – both in patient care and in adherence to our core values. 

Do Something Good 

Providers who are willing to break convention to do the right thing for a patient if necessary. Providers that dare to choose the right way to proceed in difficult situations. CSEP supports providers who choose to do what is best for the patient.

Why Work With CSEP?

Core Values

At CSEP, our Core Values drive our fundamental practice culture. The values of Do Something Good, Empathy, Accountability, and Zeal guide our decisions and interactions with each other, our teams, hospital staff, patients, and their families. Although this has made CSEP an outstanding place to practice medicine, we continually strive to improve our practice environment and enhance provider satisfaction. 

We understand the stresses and obstacles to providing outstanding medical care in today’s climate, and we work collectively to overcome them. It is our passion to create a great practice atmosphere at CSEP, where providers are excited to work. 

Better Lifestyle & Longevity

We believe that a positive patient experience begins with provider satisfaction. Our care model allows for quick patient evaluations, more time for meaningful interactions with patients and their families, and faster turnaround for lab and imaging results. This translates to much better throughput and improved patient and staff satisfaction.

We have found that by supporting our teams, improving provider satisfaction, and allowing for greater flexibility in scheduling, our providers as a whole are more engaged not only at work but at home. This is why we are committed to providing a career that allows for greater fulfillment, enhancing our providers’ quality of life while promoting career longevity.
Variety

CSEP recognizes the crucial need for work-life balance in preserving provider wellness. Our unique opportunities enable to tailor your work-life balance in a way that best suits your evolving needs and goals. Each month you may choose to work 24-hour shifts, 12-hour shifts, or any combination that entices you. You can work in a collaborative environment with other APPs and physicians, or you may prefer to manage the emergency room independently.

After designing a work structure that works best for you, CSEP can provide your schedule up to 3 months in advance, allowing for a healthy work-life balance. CSEP has also implemented additional programs and systems to support a balanced lifestyle and practice longevity, including the NightRider program and Practice Manager team.
Geography

Sell your snow shovel! Sell your ice scrapers! With 330+ days of clear skies, sunshine is the only thing to shovel here. Phoenix’s beautiful sunny climate creates opportunity for outdoor adventure year-round with breathtaking landscapes statewide. The Phoenix area is a hub for a variety of concerts, professional sports, and family friendly activities for endless entertainment. With plenty of opportunities to meet your Vitamin D needs and lower living costs, it’s no wonder the Phoenix Metropolitan area has become a relocation magnet.

Practice Managers

We understand that the high pressure of the emergency room mixed with bureaucratic headaches can put a strain on even the most ardent doctor. We minimize this friction by providing Practice Managers. Practice Managers are tasked with making your life easier, whether it’s by completing a 40+ page hospital application or working with you to find coverage for the shift you accidentally picked up on your anniversary. They become your right hand– a resource or a contact for anything and everything.

NightRider

NightRider is a voluntary program that allows an experienced APP to cover an 8-hour portion of a Physician’s night shift so that the Physician can sleep while on shift. Increasing the chance that you are able to sleep during your night shifts enhances your lifestyle as the protected rest time means you can return home to your family refreshed and ready to participate in the day’s events. NightRider can help increase the longevity of your career, reduce burnout, and improve work/life balance.

Physician compensation for that shift is split to cover the APP compensation. The NightRider Program is a win-win as it provides opportunities for APPs to exercise enhanced autonomy and supplement their income by working shifts at lower volume facilities that wouldn’t otherwise offer APP shifts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Once you are credentialed with Dignity Health – Arizona General Hospital ERs, you can practice at all 14 facilities (12 free standing EDs and 2 hospitals). 

Physicians can choose to work 8-hour shifts, 12-hour shifts, 24-hour shifts, or a combination. APPs can work 8, 10, or 12-hour shifts. 

Cerner, however, we are projected to convert to Epic in mid-2027.

We have a variety of coverage options at our facilities based on average volume and location. We have single physician coverage at our lower volume/acuity sites and a physician plus 1-4 APPs at our higher volume/acuity sites. Recently we have added additional physician shifts for overlapping physician coverage at Laveen Hospital as well as our Camelback and Glendale HSEDs. Since coverage is typically based on volume, it can vary at the same facility throughout the year.
