Full Time
Applications are invited for Registrars looking to join the Critical Care team at Waikato Hospital for the 2025/2026 training year.
You will ideally have at least three years' experience including some experience in ICU/Anaesthetics.
The Waikato Hospital Critical Care Unit is a vibrant and exciting place to work. The critical care department is made up of 16 intensive care beds and 12 HDU beds in a modern purpose-built facility. New technology surrounds this department. Registrars work across the critical care looking after arguably the broadest range of patients in New Zealand. The patient population includes a large volume trauma centre, a neurosurgical ICU, cardiac surgery ICU, general adult ICU and limited paediatric ICU. Registrars are involved in transport across the Te Manawa Taki regional hospitals by helicopter, plane and road.
Waikato Hospital Critical care unit is ideal for those training in intensive care or who are considering this specialty as a future career and is backed by C24 accreditation from the College of Intensive Care Medicine and a supportive specialist and senior registrar staff. Weekly teaching involves specialists and registrars and bedside teaching is the norm including teaching in echocardiography.
Registrars are expected to work hard but will reap the rewards of experience with procedures and development of important decision-making skills.
