As a Clinician-Teacher, the successful candidate’s major non-clinical focus will be on teaching the next generation of physicians. Teaching activity will include both didactic and clinical teaching.
The position is for a Clinician-Teacher with a focus on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pulmonary rehabilitation, and Quality Improvement (QI). Clinical responsibilities will include providing specialized care for patients with COPD through the outpatient subspecialty COPD clinic and pulmonary rehabilitation program; participating in the COPD specialized consultation service; and contributing to inpatient and outpatient respirology services across MUHC sites (the Montreal Chest Institute/Royal Victoria Hospital (Glen), the Montreal General Hospital, and the Lachine Hospital) as part of the Division’s clinical service responsibilities.
The incumbent will work closely with an interdisciplinary COPD team comprising a nurse practitioner, COPD nurse educators, respiratory therapists, physiotherapists, and occupational therapists to deliver comprehensive, patient-centered care. Responsibilities will also include contributing to the supervision of fellows in the Clinical Fellowship in Chronic Respiratory Disease and Pulmonary Rehabilitation, advancing and expanding pulmonary rehabilitation outreach initiatives to satellite centres within the MUHC network, with particular attention to Indigenous communities in Northern Quebec, and assuming leadership responsibilities as opportunities arise, including the potential appointment as Medical Lead of the Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program.
The successful candidate will be expected to contribute to the teaching of clinical and research trainees at undergraduate and graduate levels, and to continuing medical education. While it is not expected that the candidate obtain independent research funding, it is expected that they support research activities being conducted by Respiratory Division members.
The incumbent will also be expected to be actively involved in relevant aspects of McGill’s academic mission (e.g., research, teaching, supervision of students and residents and involvement in academic and administrative committees).
All McGill faculty members are expected to contribute to service activities within their units, the University, and the wider scholarly community. A demonstrated commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion is also expected.
