Your South Pacific working holiday could kick off 2024 with this fantastic Rural Generalist role on Norfolk Island. There’s so much more to Norfolk island than being recognised for it’s popular pine trees – It’s a treasure box full of history, amazing facts, incredible landscapes and monumental constitutional firsts all rolled up and gifted to us to unpack whatever brilliant jewel of surprise that grabs your attention - in one of THE most popular Locum destinations available.
The Position
Working alongside 4 other GPs, you will be providing primary care and emergency services to Norfolk Island’s permanent community and transient tourist population.
On-call responsibilities are shared, allowing you to explore your surrounds 5 evenings out of 7 and 3 out of 4 of your weekends. Your work will be split between the local district hospital and multi-purpose centre with support from experienced nursing, community, mental and allied health teams.
Returning GPs or those able to offer longer blocks are preferred for continuity of care, so why not make this a repeat or extended locum. We are happy to connect you with other Locums who have worked on Norfolk Island to share their experience with you.

At Prescript we’re known for helping solve the regional doctor shortage in Australia.
Every day we’re focused on two clear outcomes - Helping hospitals find doctors that create departments and clinics that run better, have more capacity and less stress. And placing Doctors in jobs that leave them feeling highly valued, rewarded and, most importantly, enjoying what they do.
We believe that when we get these two crucial things right, it has a huge impact on the regional doctor shortage and the healthcare of communities across Australia.
