Family Medicine locum tenensassignments nationwide.
What to expect as a locum family medicine physician.
Typical setting
Rural outpatient clinics, FQHC settings, critical access hospitals, and urgent care facilities. Many assignments combine outpatient care with inpatient rounding.
Typical schedule
Typically Monday–Friday with some weekend urgent care coverage. Combination inpatient/outpatient roles require flexibility across settings.
Assignment length
Minimum 4-week assignments. Many family medicine locums positions run 3–6 months as facilities manage extended permanent hiring cycles.

Family medicine locums in rural settings often involves a broader scope than urban outpatient practice — inpatient rounding, ER coverage, and urgent care may all be part of the same assignment. Falcon prepares physicians for that reality before they arrive.
