Recruitment & Retention

If you are a family medicine resident, a provisionally or fully licensed FP, or a soon to be or practicing NP, the R&R team is equipped with information and resources to support you at all stages of your career.

The R&R team aims to increase the number of FPs and NPs in Vancouver. Meanwhile, help support and facilitate the attachment of patients to these FPs and NPs. We seek to support FPs and NPs as they explore Vancouver, find a great clinic suitable to their needs, and welcome them to our community and city. Our team is always available to discuss opportunities in Vancouver and we can help support you in your practice journey.

Who We Support

Recruitment

Across a variety of care settings and locations in Vancouver, there are many permanent positions and locum opportunities available. You can use the search functions to explore opportunities by job title, job details, communities, and practice setting. You can also nd opportunities on BC Family Doctors, Health Match BC, and Cherry Health. Once you apply to a posting, the R&R team will be notified across the four job posting websites mentioned above and will follow up with you directly. Alternatively, you can email us at recruitment@vancouverdivision.com. 

On average, there are typically 215 FP and NP opportunities in total per month. On behalf of clinics in Vancouver, we are looking for FPs to fill numerous locum opportunities, which vary in duration, flexibility, and location. On top of this, we can assist FPs and NPs looking to join a practice permanently. Depending on what you are looking for, we will provide you with guidance and introduce you to the clinics that fall in line with your preferences and requirements

In addition, the R&R team has programming to support the administrative needs of family practice clinics. We recruit medical office assistants (MOAs) and clinic managers to contribute to the growing need for clinic staff.

Welcome to Longitudinal Family Practice Handbook

Our helpful handbook created for clinics, FPs, and NPs to learn more about the Vancouver Division, our partners, and access overviews of key aspects involved in practicing in Vancouver. From licensing to finding a clinic to join to types of remuneration and much more.

Practice Closure & Retirement

Unlike some other professions, closing or retiring from your family practice is not as simple as picking a date and closing your doors. There are other steps to consider, such as looking for someone to take over the care of your patients. Developing a plan for your practice closure/retirement early on can help reduce stress during this transition. We recommend you take some time to envision what you want your own practice closure/retirement transition to look like. After you’ve had some time to start preparing yourself for your practice closure/retirement, it is important to consider how you will transition your practice and patients.

If you are thinking about closing your practice, the R&R team can provide you with an in-depth overview for your retirement plan to support your patients and more as you transition out of practice.

Practice Closure & Retirement Guide

The purpose of this guide is to provide insight into all of key components, considerations, and resources related to practice closure and retirement planning for clinic-based family physicians and nurse practitioners.
