A department that functions well
Join a stable, collegial group of 18 geriatricians with strong registrar and junior support. This is a team people stay in.
Breadth without chaos
Acute, subacute (GEM), orthogeriatrics, outpatient clinics, and outreach. Youll have variety, without the fragmentation of larger metro systems.
You can shape the future
Theres a clear vision for service development, including an Older Persons ED model. Your input will matter.
The role
What youll get
They were just open to something better.
