There is an urgent need for committed relief/contract psychiatrists at the Tehachapi CA correctional facility. The facility is seeking psychiatrists for 1x10h/week, 3x10h/week, and 5x8h/week, weekdays for at least 6 months.

This is a forensic facility, and the patients are forensic patients. A criminal background check, drug test, and CALPERS affidavit will be part of the hiring process.

An active CA medical license, ABPN certificate, active DEA, active NPI, BLS certification, and medical malpractice insurance is required. The applicant must be authorized to work in the USA. We can assist with these on a case-by-case basis subject to rate adjustment.

Funk and Associates is owned by a relief psychiatrist and our goal is to deliver as much of the company's rate to the doctor as possible. As a result, malpractice insurance, licensing, transport, and lodging expenses are borne by the candidate, unless alternate arrangements are made. Our rate is listed as a range because calling out or inability to complete shifts is subject to a penalty from the client. Additionally for the top rate, the candidate will be paid when FAA is paid, typically 80 days after invoicing. Faster payment is subject to approval and will affect the rate. Advances are negotiable for new hires. Orientation is required by the facility and up to 40 hours of orientation may be paid at half the patient care rate.
