The opportunity 

The Karratha Health Campus Emergency Department is a state-of-the-art, purpose-built facility delivering 24/7 emergency care across the Pilbara. With double the capacity of the old hospital and over 18,500 presentations annually, it offers clinicians exposure to diverse, high-impact cases. Staff work within a multidisciplinary team supported by visiting specialists and telehealth links to Perth. Join us to combine cutting-edge emergency practice with a rewarding regional lifestyle where your skills make a real difference.

The location 

Just a two-hour flight from Perth and a three-hour drive south of Port Hedland. The City of Karratha is located in the dynamic Pilbara region of north Western Australia, encompassing the towns of Karratha, Roebourne, Dampier, Cossack, Wickham, and Point Samson. Know as the "Munjaree" – or the heart of the West Pilbara Coast – its size and central location make it the ideal base for exploring the natural delights of the area.

This Emergency Department boasts a new CT scanner, surgical centre, delivery suites, maternity wing, and world-class Telehealth helipad supporting new and expanded outpatients and essential services such as child health and medical imaging, all under one roof.
