Step into one of the most flexible and dynamic inpatient roles in Florida. Baptist Health is seeking a Hospitalist for our Regional Float Pool, a unique opportunity to practice across our six hospitals in Northeast Florida — from beachside Jacksonville to historic Amelia Island. If you thrive in a variety of clinical settings while enjoying the stability of a major health system, this role is built for you.
Why This Role Stands Out
$260K+ base compensation (higher with experience)
Sign-on & commencement bonuses
Relocation assistance available
True 7 on / 7 off schedule
Practice at multiple Baptist hospitals based on community need
Physician-led, professionally managed hospitalist enterprise
State-of-the-art facilities with system-wide Epic EHR
Extensive specialist support across all campuses
Stable, collaborative, mission-driven culture
The Regional Float Pool Experience
This team supports inpatient care wherever the need is highest across our system.
One week you may be caring for patients on Amelia Island, and the next week supporting our busy downtown Jacksonville campus. No matter where you’re assigned, the mission remains the same: deliver excellent care to the communities we serve.
Exposure to diverse patient populations
Opportunity to work across various hospital environments
Flexible, high-impact role with exceptional support and structure
