Job Description
Ochre Medical Centre St Marys is looking for a GP/rural generalist to join its small and dedicated team to help cope with demand. Whilst full-time would be preferred, part-time will also be considered.
The practice is co-located with the St Marys District Hospital/Community Health Centre and operates Monday to Friday from 9.00 am – 5.00 pm. The hospital is a Tier 2 facility with 8 acute/sub-acute beds and an emergency department. Medical support is provided to the hospital as “on call”; this includes weekends when the practice is closed. Outreach and part-time services are available to support patient-centred care.
Ideally you will work 8-10 sessions during the week, sharing the after hours and weekend on-call (currently with locums). As the medical officer on call, it is expected that you will be able to attend the hospital within 30 minutes or less and be able to manage acute and/or sub-acute presentations independently. During periods of on-call, a house is provided for those medical officers who do not meet the 30 minute requirement.
What we have to offer:
- Competitive remuneration based on percentage of gross billings received: 65% for VR, 60% for non-VR
- Rural Medical Practitioner payments for hospital work
- Workforce Incentive Payments
- Eligibility for Rural Procedural Grants Program
- Eligible location for the HR+ Health Workforce Scholarship Program, which offers generous funding for health professionals looking to extend the skills and services they can offer their community.
- Eligible location for the RVTS and ACRRM IP
- Eligible location for the Five Year International Medical Graduate Recruitment Scheme – in this location, your 10 year moratorium can be reduced to 4 YEARS from the time of joining the Scheme.
