The hospital provides a full range of specialty services and is considered the hub for health research in the region, with close ties to James Cook University's schools of medicine, nursing and allied health. It offers a state-of-the-art research space and ample opportunities for academic activities and clinical trial partnerships. This hospital delivers comprehensive mental health, rehabilitation, addiction assessment and treatment services across a number of settings including inpatient units, community care, residential rehabilitation, and supported accommodation.
As Consultant Psychiatrist, you will provide an advanced standard of clinical care through the provision of professional psychiatric intervention, direct clinical care, and recovery-focused treatment to patients and their families in a General Adult setting.
