We are seeking a Locum FACEM VMO to join Armidale Hospital's Emergency Department in a unique role. This position offers the chance to practise high-impact emergency medicine in a rural regional setting, with significant autonomy and exposure to a diverse and often complex caseload. While the workload can at times be high and junior support is limited, this creates an excellent opportunity for a confident FACEM to take on meaningful leadership, shape clinical processes, and enjoy hands-on, broadly scoped emergency practice. Armidale would also consider a GP with extensive ED experience.
