Seeking a Specialist Geriatrician (In-patient & Community) for our client based in regional Victoria.
This is a position with a tertiary teaching hospital, accredited by the majority of medical colleges, and a strong commitment to patient-centered care. The hospital serves over 80,000 people and provides exceptional care across a wide range of services.
The role is a current approach designed to support transitional care, based within the community service department, with close collaboration with acute inpatient services. It will involve both inpatient and community care, including remote care.
As elderly patients often face longer hospital stays and increased adverse events, the role of a Geriatrician is crucial in ensuring that elderly patients are managed in the most appropriate setting. This could include acute inpatient admission, direct subacute admission, ambulatory care, or home care with community support and quick follow-up access.
The location is just an hour’s flight from cosmopolitan Melbourne and offers direct flights to several major cities. Known for its expansive skies and fertile land, the area boasts a Mediterranean climate, a relaxed lifestyle, and is perfect for families, with access to top-tier public and private schools.
