The current 6 bed critical care admits around 500 patients per annum. The case-mix will be diverse given our large geographical catchment area with the ability to cater for general medical, surgical, and trauma patients. Paediatric and burns patients can also be stabilised and cared for in the ICU until aeromedical transportation to other centres can be arranged if required.

Clinical and non-clinical duties will be rostered as per ASMS contract agreement. You will be expected to undertake a full share of the Intensive Care on-call roster with other members of the team. With the development of our service, other duties will include participation in teaching and supervision of junior doctors, nurses, and medical students, team ward rounds, quality and safety activities, audit, and clinical review meetings.
