News: Would you like to earn $10,000/month? Then do this for Ebola

A government-partnered agency outlined its desperate need for medical personnel in a listserv email Tuesday.

Those curious what fighting Ebola in West Africa would look like need wonder no longer.

In an email to a business development listserv, an agency called Canyon Concepts Services, Inc (CCSi) outlined the U.S.’s plans for Liberian intervention in a roadmap aimed at recruiting medical personnel.

The mission calls for 34 teams of approximately 24 people who will be compensated with net salaries ranging from $8-10K. Excluding a few unlisted technical roles, the team calls for: one medical coordinator, one infection-control doctor, four physicians, four chief nurses, eight nurses, and one social worker.

Each 21-week rotation begins with a two-week training session before a six-week rotation in the Ebola Treatment Units (ETU's). Following one week of “R&R,” the team will spend one more six-week rotation in the ETU before entering a three-week isolation. The tentative location of the quarantine (which is “still to be defined”) is Casablanca. Beyond medical board or nursing association certification, candidates must have a valid passport and yellow fever vaccination.

Specific job descriptions imply a meticulous attention to detail will be necessary in the mission. The sole medical coordinator of each team will be responsible for the “overall coordination of medical operations at ETU” as well as “planning, medical supplies supervision, and safety.” An infection specialist will “establish, advise, and supervise on strict application of EBOLA safety and infection prevention measures at ETU.” Four physicians will be in charge of managing “triage procedures” and supervising patient care.

Four chief nurses will be asked to “assist with staff health status monitoring, staff risk exposure in community, and coordinate in-patient wards nursing,” while eight standard nurses will watch over triage procedures and manage patient care. The social worker will “assist staff and public with counseling and psychosocial support and communications.”

On top of the $8-10K salary, visa and transit costs will be covered. The benefits also consist of “insurance death/disability cover” for $250,000 and a medical aid plan through British based medical aid (BUPA). Liberian taxes will be initially be deducted, but “MAY be comp'd” considering the “high priority International situation.”
