If you are seeking a serious academic program that is focused on procedures not just referrals and want exposure to the full spectrum of Emergency Medicine in a regional trauma centre this is the position for you!

We moved into a brand-new hospital in 2017 with 48 treatment spaces including 4 resus cubicles and 15 short stay beds, a helipad and a 24 hr cath lab.

We are a happy department with a strong team culture, across seniority and disciplines.
