The expanding Endocrinology and Diabetes team at ASH consists of 3 local Endocrinologists and four Diabetes Nurse Educators. The high prevalence of diabetes in the local population (40% of indigenous adults) provides opportunity to improve your knowledge and management of diabetes. Hospital work involves outpatient clinics (Diabetes and general Endocrinology), ward consults and outreach clinics.
The medicine here is entirely unique. More than 70% of patients are Indigenous - many from remote communities. Co-morbidities and social conditions can be complex and effective communication is essential. Alice Springs Hospital is a 183 bed teaching hospital affiliated with the Flinders University South Australia and Charles Darwin University, Royal Darwin Hospital, Royal Adelaide Hospital and Flinders Medical Centre, with many visiting specialists. The catchment area is over a million square kilometres with a strong focus on Indigenous and remote health.
