Locum GP / ED Collarenebri, NSW

• Highly rewarding Rural Generalist Locum role
• Solo Doctor - with ED on-call until 6pm only (remote support after hours)
• Small, country community with a fantastic Multi-Purpose Service

The Opportunity

In this solo doctor town you will experience a diverse scope of practice from children right through to the elderly; and everything in between. The General practice operates 3 days per week and is co-located with the hospital as you would also be on call for all ED presentations between 8am and 6pm. After hours coverage is provided by nearby towns and the supportive nursing team. The hospital is equipped with 3 ED beds; 3 Acute care beds and a 10 bed residential aged care ward. If you enjoy a diverse population and variety in your work this is a great spot where you can start your day in the ED; do a ward round by lunch and then be in the General Practice for the afternoon.

These 3 day a week locum jobs can be supplemented with additional days at nearby Lightning Ridge or Walgett.

Ongoing locum work available from June to Dec 2024.
