Want to get closer to ‘the heart’ of Australia? Want to have a positive impact on health and wellbeing in regional and remote Central Australia?
Looking for somewhere challenging, rewarding...somewhere fundamentally different?
Alice Springs is the regional hub of Central Australia with an urban population of approximately 30,000 people.
Nestled within the Mac Donnell Ranges, spectacular gorges and waterholes, accessible by road, walking trails and bicycle tracks, surround the town. It is multicultural with well-established schools and amenities. There are many galleries, al fresco cafes, restaurants and bars, and all manner of sport and fitness clubs. Out of town are places to camp under the stars, swim through gorges, explore rocky mountain ranges and hit world-class mountain bike trails.
Alice Springs Hospital is a 183 bed teaching hospital with strong links to Tennant Creek Hospital, Royal Darwin Hospital, Royal Adelaide Hospital and Flinders Medical Centre with many visiting specialists from these hospitals.
