Senior Consultant Anaesthetist (50-100%) - maximum one weekend per month

When was the last time you had a weekend that truly belonged to you? And how often have you wished to be able to plan your shifts more than two weeks in advance?

Here, it is different. In a small hospital where everyone knows each other and supports one another, shifts are predictable, and at most one weekend per month belongs to the hospital. Whether 50 or 100 percent: you decide how much space your profession takes up in your life.

The acute hospital is located between Zurich and St. Gallen and ensures basic and emergency care for the region. It is part of the largest healthcare network in Eastern Switzerland. The anaesthesia department serves all surgical specialties on site, including general surgery, gynaecology, and obstetrics, and is also involved in emergency and pain medicine. This way, you experience a broad spectrum without the hustle and bustle of a large operation.

During the week, you work in a three-shift system with early, late, and night shifts. The late shift starts at 12 noon, the night shift at 10 pm. Requests for late and night shifts are accommodated whenever possible.

Your responsibilities:

• Anaesthetic care for all surgical specialties of the hospital, for both planned and emergency procedures
• General and regional anaesthesia under your own responsibility

• Team spirit and enthusiasm for exchange with other specialties

Your benefits:

• Maximum one weekend shift per month
• Predictable shifts in a three-shift system, considerate of your wishes
• Workload from 50% possible, ideal if family or leisure require more space
