Regional Temporary Pool

​​Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH) and Providence Health Care (PHC) are committed to ensuring that clinical departments across our region have the physician coverage they need to deliver timely, high-quality patient care. The Regional Temporary Pools connect qualified physicians with short-term opportunities, helping maintain continuity of care and support for our healthcare teams.

 

To support this, we have established three dedicated pools:

  • Regional Emergency Department Temporary Pool (RegEDTempPool)

  • Regional Anesthesia Temporary Pool (RegAnesTempPool).

  • Regional Psychiatry Temporary Pool (RegPsycTempPool). 

This initiative reflects our commitment to excellence in patient care by addressing staffing needs quickly and effectively.
