What is an anesthesia associate?

Anesthesia Associates are healthcare professionals trained to assist anesthesiologists in delivering anesthesia care to patients before, during, and after surgical procedures. They work as part of the anesthesia team, performing tasks such as preparing equipment, monitoring patients, and administering anesthesia under supervision. Their role helps ensure patient safety and smooth operation of anesthesia services in hospitals and surgical centers.

How does an anesthesia associate typically collaborate with surgical teams during procedures?

An Anesthesia Associate works closely with anesthesiologists, surgeons, nurses, and other operating room staff to ensure patient safety and optimal anesthesia care during surgical procedures. They are responsible for preparing equipment, monitoring patient vitals, and assisting with the administration of anesthesia under supervision. Effective communication and teamwork are essential, as the Anesthesia Associate must respond quickly to changes in patient status and support the team in maintaining a sterile and efficient environment. This collaborative approach helps ensure smooth workflows and the best possible outcomes for patients.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an anesthesia associate, and why are they important?

To thrive as an Anesthesia Associate, you need a solid background in human physiology, pharmacology, and anesthesia techniques, typically supported by a relevant degree or certification such as a Certified Anesthesia Technologist (Cer.A.T.T.). Familiarity with anesthesia machines, patient monitoring systems, and electronic health records is essential. Attention to detail, strong communication, and the ability to work well under pressure are standout soft skills for this role. These competencies ensure the safe and effective support of anesthesiologists and optimal patient outcomes during surgical procedures.

Neuro Radiologist, Diagnostic Radiologist with Neuroradiology fellowship

Spectrum Management Services Company

Bangor, ME

$325K - $406K/yr

Full-time

Posted 20 days ago


Job description

Spectrum Healthcare Partners is seeking a Board Eligible/Board Certified Diagnostic Radiologist with Neuroradiology fellowship training to join our highly profitable, progressive Radiology group. The successful candidate will also have strong general radiology skills and basic interventional skills; this is primarily a general radiology position with part focus on neuroradiology. You will join our established group of 18 radiologists to provide primary coverage at hospitals serving Eastern & Coastal Maine communities. With recent and upcoming new sites of coverage, we aim to expand our group further over the next year.

Along with a generous compensation and benefits package, this full-time position offers a two-year to partnership track opportunity, and very reasonable call expectations. All our new associates enjoy 10 weeks of vacation per year, increasing to 12 weeks/year for all partners, with opportunities for up to 16 weeks/year or more as schedules allow.

Our group operates on a fair and equitable work model, with near equal division of labor and benefits between all partners and associates; we do not believe in overburdening the newer members of our practice. We do not track RVUs and individual productivity, as we believe it is not to the benefit of patients, and often results in an overly competitive environment. We are very proud of the camaraderie we have built in our practice. The successful candidate will value collegiality, work ethic, collaboration, and a reasonable work/life balance.

Our Practice

We are the dominant group in this region with minimal competition in our area, and numerous opportunities for expansion. We serve a variety of hospitals, from our largest hospital, Eastern Maine Medical Center (EMMC), which recently underwent an extensive $300 million expansion and serves as the primary referral center in the region with 411 beds, to small regional hospitals, providing a variety of patient populations.

EMMC is also the regional tertiary referral center for neurology and neurosurgery, with regional expertise in neuro-oncology, spine surgery, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy and neurodegenerative disorders. EMMC is a certified Primary Stroke Center, with stroke neurology and neuro-interventional services available 24/7 for acute stroke care, clot retrieval and other endovascular procedures. The expertise of our neuroradiologists are highly appreciated by our consulting neurologists and neurosurgeons, with whom we enjoy a close and friendly working relationship.

Bangor, Maine

Bangor is perfectly situated in Maineallowing physicians to enjoy world-class sailing, kayaking, cycling, hiking, and skiing all nearby. In addition, Bangor offers big city amenities like a strong arts community, a retail district, high-quality dining, Division 1 college sports, and one of the best school districts in the state. Portland is an easy 2-hour drive south, and Bangor International Airport offers direct flights to New York City, Philadelphia, Chicago, Washington D.C., Orlando, Tampa/St. Petersburg, and Charlotte.

Bangor is also notable for a diverse ethnic, religious and cultural community with former and current J1 waiver physicians contributing to substantial background diversity. The flagship university in the UMaine system, University of Maine in Orono is located minutes away, which draws tens of thousands of students of various nationalities.

Spectrum Healthcare Partners welcomes applications from physicians requiring H1B visas and seeking J-1 CONRAD 30 waivers. A few of our radiologists, and many of our colleague physicians in the area, are current or former J-1 waiver physicians. Bangor is an ideal location for a J-1 waiver practice site; we are officially designated as a Medically Underserved Area/Population (MUP) but with the amenities of a big town/small city, and a population of over 150,000 in the metropolitan area. Maine is also one of the least restrictive and competitive states for CONRAD 30 J-1 waiver applications.
