Job Description
Join Our Team as an OB Hospitalist

Our organization is on the lookout for OB Hospitalists to become part of our expanding, hospital-based team that supports a rapidly growing women's services program in Central and Southern Delaware. With approximately 2,800 deliveries each year (1,800 in Kent and 1,000 in Sussex) and a continually increasing population, this position offers a chance to engage in a high-volume, well-supported setting, allowing you the flexibility to tailor your role to align with your career aspirations.

OB Hospitalist Role | Focus on Inpatient Care
  • Flexible scheduling options with 24-hour shifts available
  • Inpatient-only model—no outpatient clinic duties
  • Collaborate with Certified Nurse Midwives (CNMs) and a proficient nursing team
  • Modern, centralized unit layout featuring:
    • 10 Labor, Delivery, and Recovery (LDR) rooms
    • 4 OB Emergency Department/triage rooms
    • 2 dedicated Operating Rooms adjacent to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)
    • Efficiently designed pre-operative, post-anesthesia care unit (PACU), and postpartum units
  • 24/7 in-house support from anesthesia, pediatrics, and neonatal specialists
  • Staffing aligned with ACOG A-1 perinatal guidelines to ensure safe, high-quality care
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
  • High-volume program with increasing demand
  • Collaborative, team-oriented approach with CNMs, OB hospitalists, and specialists
  • Chance to teach and mentor residents and medical students across various specialties
  • Your input as a physician is valued—we encourage discussions about your practice preferences
Compensation & Benefits That Deliver
  • Competitive base salary plus wRVU and quality incentives
  • Sign-on bonus
  • Comprehensive malpractice coverage
  • Generous paid time off and holidays
  • 401(k)/403(b) plans with employer matching

As a healthcare professional, you have numerous opportunities available to you. At our organization, we provide something more significant—a workplace where your expertise is appreciated, your opinions are valued, and your contributions make a difference every day. We are excited that you are considering joining our team.

Why Choose Us?

When you become part of our organization, you are not merely taking on a job; you are joining a connected and collaborative medical community. Our robust provider networks enable you to forge strong relationships throughout the health system and the community, enhancing both your professional development and patient outreach.

You will also have the chance to engage beyond clinical responsibilities. Whether through committees, quality improvement projects, or leadership initiatives, your insights can help shape the future of the care we provide.
