The Position
Psychiatrists - would you like to locum on the spectacular Fraser Coast? Prescript has month blocks available from 14 June to 29 October 2021.
Why not experience a sea-change in this fantastic part of the world? Work in a friendly, welcoming team, and explore and enjoy the beautiful weather and landscape that the Fraser Coast has to offer over the weekends. You might even decide to add on some time before or after your locum if you have leave available!
Your time will be split working within community mental health (30 to 50%) and forensic services (50 to 70%).
★ 14 June to 29 October 2021
★ $2,000 per day
★ Flights, car-hire and accommodation provided
The Fraser Coast is a perfect destination for those wanting some quintessential Australian beach life and adventures on the water with its delightfully warm climate, pristine coastline, and stunning scenery.
With over 40km of pristine beaches stretching out from it, is the place to experience world-class fishing; boating culture; water sports of every type - and the 'laidback' vibe that can give even the most over-worked city visitor the chance to change down a few gears and totally relax. If you like fresh seafood, then you're in luck too!
Maryborough, by contrast to Hervey Bay's salty, beach-led lifestyle, has a lovely change of pace into a historic, heritage town that offers a wonderful insight into colonial life and industry of days gone by. The charming old port city of Maryborough was in the mid-1800s, a thriving port town second only to Sydney as Australia's main immigration point for thousands of new settlers who flocked here. The original wharf district has now been converted to a heritage precinct, Portside, which is another 'must see' to add to the list.

Renowned for its visiting humpback whales and the close and intimate Whale Watching experiences that the local fleet can offer, Hervey Bay is a popular playground for tourists all year round because of its mild climate.”

Do you know someone else who may be interested too? For every referral of a colleague you make to Prescript, a year’s worth of life-saving clean water will be donated to Ethiopian families in the Tigray region. Families here are not only caught in a humanitarian crisis at the moment, but they also don’t have access to this basic life necessity even in peaceful times.
