Job Description

JOB Riverside University Health System (RUHS) is seeking candidates for a Per Diem Dentist to provide vacation and PTO coverage, as needed, at four dental clinic sites located throughout Riverside County in Jurupa Valley, Perris, Corona, and Palm Springs. The Dentist - Per Diem is an advanced journey-level classification that reports to a manager- or director-level position. In this role, the incumbent provides dental services on a part-time basis to patients of the RUHS Community Health Centers (CHCs). The CHCs are busy primary care clinics with on-site dental services. RUHS dentists typically see approximately 20 patients per day and are supported by a clinical team consisting of one Dental Assistant, one Registered Dental Assistant, and three operatories. Incumbents may also assist in supervising and providing instruction to residents, interns, and dental students in an assigned field. The ideal candidate is a skilled, experienced, and adaptable dentist who is passionate about providing high-quality care to both adult and pediatric patients. Per diem employees are distinguished from regular employees in that they receive additional compensation in lieu of County fringe benefits. Work assignments are provided on an as-needed basis and may involve a flexible work schedule. Meet the Team! Riverside University Health System provides a wide range of primary and specialty care services across 13 Community Health Centers (CHCs) throughout Riverside County. As federally qualified health centers, the CHCs operate on a sliding fee scale to ensure that some of the county's most vulnerable populations receive the care they need. Whether it's preventive care, chronic disease management, Express Care, Mobile Health, or integrated specialty and behavioral health services, our teams are made up of dedicated healthcare professionals who are passionate about making a difference. If you're committed to delivering compassionate care and eager to join a team that truly values community, connection, and making a meaningful difference, RUHS is the place for you!
