Intensive Care Registrars - multiple positions available
The Department of Critical Care Medicine (DCCM) at Royal Hobart Hospital (RHH), is the adult tertiary referral ICU for the state of Tasmania.
DCCM is a true general ICU with 23 beds and over 1500 admissions per year. It has a broad case-mix that includes cardiothoracic surgery, neurosurgery, major trauma and burns, all the surgical subspecialties and complex cardiology, medical, haematology and oncology patients. RHH handles high risk obstetrics, has a Neonatal and Paediatric ICU and an evolving Interventional Radiology service. There is a state-wide Aeromedical Retrieval Service supporting our critical care and high acuity services.
DCCM is accredited with CICM for tertiary ICU, Cardiothoracic, Neurosurgical and Trauma ICU time. Additionally, other CICM training needs can be completed within RHH or other Tasmanian Hospitals, and we may be able to help facilitate external rotations for some trainees.
DCCM offers a range of employment and training opportunities, including Senior Resident Medical Officer, Registrar, Senior Registrar and CICM Transition Year Fellow positions.
We are looking for doctors with strong clinical skills and knowledge, who have career interests in any of the acute care specialties, or simply wish to gain experience in critical care medicine. We can support dual-specialty trainees and can offer flexible working arrangements in some circumstances.
DCCM is staffed by SRMO’s and Registrars working day and night shifts, under the supervision of Consultant Intensivists and Senior Registrars/Fellows. There may be regular rostered overtime, with up to 90-95 hours rostered per fortnight/pay period on some occasions. Our Senior Registrar positions are for Fellowship-level trainees and include on-call from home with Consultant support.
These positions align with RHH Registrar term dates, starting 06 February 2023 to 05 February 2024.
Late applications may be considered if positions remain unfilled.
