About the Role

Weslaco, Texas Physician Assistant (PA) – Hospitalist Locum Tenens
Weekday Schedule • No Call • Low Census • High-Autonomy Inpatient Role

Rhino Medical is leading the charge seeking an experienced Physician Assistant to support a micro-hospital inpatient unit in Weslaco, Texas.

This is not a high-volume rounding service.

This is a focused inpatient role with a manageable census, structured hours, and strong physician backup—ideal for providers who value efficiency, autonomy, and predictable scheduling.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Monday–Friday schedule only
  • 7:00 AM – 3:00 PM (8-hour shifts)
  • No nights, no weekends, no call
  • Low daily census (~6 patients)
  • Physician backup available for support

This is a clean, controlled inpatient environment without the chaos of large hospital systems.

Facility Overview

  • Micro-hospital model (bridge between FSED and full hospital)
  • 8 inpatient beds
  • ~23,000 annual ED visits
  • EMR: Cerner

This is a modern, streamlined care setting designed for efficiency and quality outcomes.

Clinical Scope

  • Round on inpatient census (average ~6 patients/day)
  • Manage general medical cases including:
    • Seizures
    • Respiratory conditions
    • Gastroenterology cases
  • Collaborate with supervising physician (on-call support)
  • Coordinate care and ensure continuity across inpatient stay

This is a straightforward hospitalist workflow with defined responsibilities and minimal variability.

Practice Environment

  • APP-led rounding model
  • Physician on-call backup
  • Small team, highly collaborative
  • Efficient workflows with manageable patient volume

What We’re Looking For

  • Active Texas Physician Assistant license
  • Unrestricted DEA
  • Inpatient experience required

Candidates must demonstrate:

  • Ability to work independently in a low-volume inpatient setting
  • Strong clinical judgment and documentation skills
  • Comfort managing general medical cases

Credentialing Requirements

  • Standard immunizations required
  • Case logs (past 2 years)
  • CME documentation (past 2 years)
  • Additional onboarding documentation required per facility

Rhino Medical provides full support throughout credentialing.

Why Providers Move On This

  • Predictable weekday schedule
  • Low census with manageable workload
  • No call or after-hours responsibilities
  • High-autonomy environment with physician backup
  • Ideal balance of structure and independence

This is a plug-in, efficient, and sustainable inpatient assignment.
