The Position
Are you a PGY3+ doctor with recent emergency department experience?
Prescript is working with a large hospital in Canberra to fill urgent and ongoing gaps in their emergency medicine roster. Work as little as one shift around your full-time work, or stay longer to experience the surrounding area on your days off. All availability and experience levels accommodated.
★ You will be providing emergency medical care for patients under the supervision and direction of the hospital's experienced FACEMs. You will be allocated shifts in one of two emergency teams, comprising of at least one Consultant, Registrar, RMO and Intern.
★ Shifts are either morning, afternoon or night shifts, with in-charge or second-in-charge nights available. You can select the individual shifts you wish to be put forward for.
★ When you visit Canberra, be prepared to experience one good thing after another. Whether it's world-class wining and dining, iconic national treasures or outdoor adventures, everything you're after is just an easy distance away.
★ Canberra is often overlooked by visitors to Australia in favour of Sydney and Melbourne, but it is truly a great location to live and visit. Canberra is a breath of fresh air (quite literally). The planned design in a rural setting makes it the perfect combination of the city and the great outdoors.
“Lonely Planet recently named our beloved capital as the third best city to visit in the world! Canberra is finally soaking up the spotlight it deserves, and you can bet that we’re proud as punch to be Canberran right now.”
