Winter Haven, Florida Emergency Medicine Physician Locum Tenens Opportunity
New Freestanding ED • ~19K Projected Annual Visits • 12 Private Treatment Rooms • EM/FM/IM Pathways

Rhino Medical is leading the charge seeking Emergency Medicine Physicians for a locum tenens opportunity in Winter Haven, Florida.

Practice in a newly opened, 24/7 freestanding Emergency Department designed to provide full-service emergency care for both adults and children. The site is projected to see approximately 19,000 patients annually — about 52 patients per day — with 12 private treatment rooms, dedicated trauma and pediatric treatment spaces, and direct integration with a full-service hospital network for patients requiring admission or specialty care.

Opportunity Highlights

• Freestanding Emergency Department
• 24/7 emergency care
• Adult and pediatric patient population
• Approximately 19,000 projected annual visits
• Approximately 52 patients per day
• 12 private patient care rooms
• Dedicated trauma room
• Dedicated pediatric treatment room
• Newly opened Emergency Department
• Integrated hospital network for admissions and higher levels of care

Clinical Environment

This is a true freestanding Emergency Department—not an urgent care setting—with the capability to evaluate and stabilize a broad range of adult and pediatric emergencies. Current public information confirms the facility provides emergency care 24 hours a day, 365 days a year for conditions ranging from fractures and lacerations to chest pain, stroke symptoms, respiratory illness, and other potentially serious presentations.

The department's physical environment includes:

• 12 private patient care rooms
• Dedicated trauma room
• Dedicated pediatric treatment room
• Adult and pediatric emergency care
• Approximately 52 projected patient visits/day

Florida's current facility profile independently classifies the location as a hospital-based off-campus Emergency Department, reinforcing that this is hospital-level emergency care delivered in a freestanding setting.

Seamless Admission & Specialty Support

Patients requiring inpatient admission can be transferred into the affiliated hospital network with a coordinated clinical handoff to hospitalists, intensivists, and specialists.

That provides the advantages of a focused freestanding ED environment while maintaining connectivity to hospital-based resources when patients require inpatient or specialty care.

Physician Requirements

Candidates must meet one of the following pathways:

• ABEM board certified or board eligible, or
• AOBEM board certified or board eligible, or
• Board certified in Family Medicine or Internal Medicine with at least three years of Emergency Medicine experience

Additionally:

• ACLS required
• PALS required
• Comfortable treating both adult and pediatric Emergency Department patients

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• New Freestanding ED: The facility opened in January 2026, providing physicians an opportunity to work in a newly established Emergency Department.
• Focused Community Volume: At approximately 19K projected annual visits / 52 patients per day, this is a very different practice proposition from a high-volume main-campus ED.
• Purpose-Built Emergency Space: Twelve private treatment rooms are complemented by dedicated trauma and pediatric treatment rooms.
• Multiple Physician Pathways: The opportunity isn't limited exclusively to ABEM/AOBEM physicians. Experienced FM and IM physicians with three years of Emergency Medicine experience can also qualify.
• Connected When Patients Need More: Patients requiring admission transition into the affiliated hospital network with hospitalist, intensivist, and specialist support rather than remaining at the freestanding site.

Why Providers Choose Rhino Medical

• Weekly direct deposit
• AAA-rated malpractice coverage
• Concierge credentialing support
• Dedicated recruiter throughout your assignment
• Transparent scheduling and onboarding
• Long-term provider relationship focus
