Division of Medicine - Palliative Care
Fixed vacancy for 6 or 12 months in Darwin and Palmerston
Based on campus at the Royal Darwin Hospital (RDH), Territory Palliative Care provides high quality Palliative Care to an enormous geographical area - the Top End of the Northern Territory (NT). We are a wraparound service and in this role you will rotate with two other specialists through all 3 facets of Palliative Care provision – hospice, hospital consults and community service.
Territory Palliative Care (TPC) is the model service for the provision of culturally appropriate Palliative Care in Australia. In this role you will gain a rich cultural education and an understanding of the importance of finishing up on country and the many traditions, beliefs and ceremonies around death. You will be required to work closely and considerately with families, community clinics and repatriation services to plan for end of life care on country and support their ongoing needs in remote locations.
This position is aimed at improving the delivery of good Palliative Care in the primary health setting.
This role may suit a GP Registrar in training (ESP Re-accreditation with NTGPE pending) or a post fellowship primary care physician looking to upskill in the area of specialist Palliative Care. There is an opportunity for a motivated candidate to complete the RACP (Royal Australasian College of Physicians) Diploma in Palliative Medicine during this post, and TPC would be happy to support this.
