Locum Connect is a new service making it easier to find and offer longitudinal family physician coverage across Greater Victoria and Salt Spring Island.
By providing a centralized, easy-to-use hub that connects locum and host physicians to respective practice coverage opportunities, Locum Connect supports physician well-being, reduces administrative burden, and helps strengthen recruitment, retention, and continuity of care.
It allows local physicians to take much-needed time off, lets new grads and new-to-the-community physicians explore different clinics, and helps retiring physicians work on their own schedule.
