Where you’ll be working
You will be working within a Queensland health service that prides itself on the provision of clinical excellence and high quality patient care.

This is a 23-bed facility offering a variety of services to the local community including accident and emergency care, general in-patient medical, surgical and paediatric services.

The hospital also facilitates visiting specialist services, including Cardiology, Surgical, Gastroenterology, Paediatric, and Respiratory.

The Emergency Department sees at least 30 presentations of varying complexity every 24 hours, the majority being category 3 or 4.

It includes four trolley spaces and two emergency consult rooms. 

As Rural Generalist, you will provide high-quality emergency and inpatient medical services for acute and long-stay patients, outpatients, and emergency presentations.

You will work as part of a multidisciplinary team, supported by VMOs, junior doctors, and a highly experienced nursing team.

You will have the opportunity to explore a highly varied and often challenging casemix, consistently promoting a contemporary, collaborative, patient-centred model of care.

You will also have the opportunity to participate in the education and supervision of junior medical staff. 

Where you’ll be living
You will be moving to a beautiful rural region of Queensland known for its dynamic natural landscapes and rich military and mining history.

This outback town is home to a vibrant, thriving community that draws tourists year-round with regular rodeo shows, motorsport events, music festivals, and fishing and equine competitions.

You’ll be surrounded by the best of Australia’s rural charm, with an endless catalogue of rivers, lakes, basalt formations, and mountain views.

Residents here enjoy wide open spaces, minimal traffic, a lower cost of living, and a more affordable housing market.

Townsville’s famous coastline is only a 90-minute drive away, and the region has its own airport.
