Alice Springs Hospital has a catchment area of over 1,000,000 km2. We care for some of the nation's most socially disadvantaged people, with high levels of morbidity and mortality, many with diseases not seen elsewhere in the country.
Spectacular national parks surround Alice Springs. The lifestyle is laid back with an emphasis on outdoor activities and the arts. The central desert region of Australia is unique. It is a friendly, welcoming place suited to doctors with a sense of adventure and those interested in indigenous health issues, not generally seen by most doctors in Australia.
Alice Springs Hospital is a 183 bed teaching hospital affiliated with the Flinders University in South Australia and Charles Darwin University in Darwin. It is the only major hospital covering over a million square km with a strong focus on indigenous and remote health as a result of such a dispersed population. Over two thirds of acute admissions are Aboriginal people both from town and remote communities. Consequently, cultural, language and communication skills are an important component of our service delivery. Our medicine is complex, including good old fashioned "hands-on" care of arguably the sickest children in Australia. HDU/PICU/NICU skills would therefore be considered highly desirable.
The department consists of 6 consultants with a strong commitment to teaching, with 6 Registrar positions, the majority of which are filled by Advanced Trainees. Services include a 30 bed dedicated paediatric ward, an 8 bed neonatal unit with ventilation and Nitric Oxide facilities and access to ICU beds as required. Ambulatory care, with outpatient and outreach care are core components of our service.
Alice Springs Hospital works closely with Tennant Creek Hospital and Royal Darwin Hospital. The hospital has strong links to Royal Adelaide Hospital and Flinders Medical Centre as tertiary referral centres and through visiting specialists from these hospitals.
We are looking for enthusiastic consultants with at least 2 years post fellowship experience. You will have an interest in developing and improving services through education and a safety and quality approach. Many opportunities for research and expanding the relationship with Flinders University or the Baker Institute are available.
