Professional 2 - Remuneration Package Range $106,109 - $126,196Allied Health – Katherine Hospital Katherine Hospital is looking for Speech Pathologists to join our team. There are two positions available in our Acute and Community Service. The Allied Health Service, Big Rivers Region (AHS-BRR) can be summed up in two words – community and opportunity.
Community: As one transdisciplinary team, support and consultation can be as easy as asking the person next to you. It's a team that works hard, shares ideas and knowledge, innovates and implements quality improvement efficiently.
In addition to the connections within the team, AHS-BRR is also embedded as the 'go-to' in the wider community – with strong relationships with specialists from paediatricians to orthopaedics to geriatricians, and respected and recognised as familiar faces in schools, clinics and remote communities.
Opportunity: Your career trajectory is up to you. With opportunities across acute, sub-acute, outpatient, community, urban, remote, and across the lifespan, clinical professional development is prioritised, with mentoring tailored to your needs including clinical, leadership, project and cultural supervision.
In a complex region like BRR, innovation is key, which means ideas and expertise are valued and implemented at all levels. AHS-BRR is an open-door service, walking with and empowering both its consumers and employees.
The Katherine region offers a multitude of outdoor, camping, fishing, four-wheel driving, hiking, and mountain biking activities. It is close to Kakadu and Litchfield National Parks, Katherine Gorge, and in relatively close proximity to other places such as the Kimberley, Gregory National Park, Mataranka hot springs, the Red Centre, and countless other bush camping sites. While offering these natural wonders, it is also only a 3 hour drive up the fully-sealed Stuart highway to the city of Darwin, which provides ample shopping and restaurant opportunities.
There is an opportunity to make a huge difference to healthcare outcomes for patients in rural and remote areas. Working in the area of Paediatrics in a small town is rewarding, with continuity of care in the patient healthcare journey and the ability to make connections across differing family and cultural groups. Our patients have a high burden of chronic disease with complex comorbidities, making for challenging and rewarding medicine.
