Overview

As a member of the military, Anesthesiologists belong to the Medical Specialist occupation in the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) and provide specialized emergent resuscitative and anesthesia care for CAF members, whether in Canadian Forces Health Services domestic clinics / operating theaters or deployed in support of international operations. They have the opportunity to be a leader within the CAF Health Services and serve as mentor and educator to the full spectrum of military health care providers.

Their primary responsibilities are to :

• Provide anesthetic consultation for CAF Members in Canada;
• Be part of emergency resuscitation and surgical teams in Canada and in deployed settings, internationally;
• Provide in-transport care for injured or ill CAF members during evacuation back to Canada;
• Educate and advise multidisciplinary teams on emergency resuscitation, airway management, sedation and acute pain management;

• Contribute to the development and application of health care policies within the CAF

Work environment

Anesthesiologists in the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) maintain their clinical readiness by being embedded as staff in tertiary care civilian hospitals across Canada, working alongside their civilian colleagues. Part of their time may be spent providing consultative services to support Primary Care Clinicians at Canadian Forces Health Services Clinics in Canada. Participation in education and training tasks, as well as research opportunities, occur nationally and internationally.

They belong to 1 Canadian Field Hospital and maintain their operational readiness by participating in annual military skills training and field exercises. When required, they will be called upon to deploy to unique and challenging clinical environments as part of a Health Services team on domestic and international operations.

If you chose a career in the Regular Force, upon completion of all required training, you will be assigned to your first base. While there is some flexibility with regards to postings (relocations), accommodations can’t always be made, and therefore, you can likely expect to move at some point in your career. However, if you decide to join the Primary Reserve Force, you will do so through a specific Reserve unit. Outside of training, your chosen Reserve unit will be your workplace on a part time basis, and you will not be obligated to relocate to a different base. As part of the Primary Reserve Force, you typically work one night per week and some weekends as a minimum with possibilities of full-time employment.

Entry plans

If you are a member of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada and have an unrestricted licence to practise in Anesthesia in a Canadian province or territory, you may be eligible for enrolment and to commence basic training.
