Health New Zealand - Te Whatu Ora
Invercargill
OTHER & FULL TIME
Intensivist - Critical Care Medicine Specialist
Southland Hospital
Currently, Southland Hospital has a six bed Critical Care Unit and following significant investment we are aiming to have the necessary staffing and resourcing for two Intensive Care level beds and four high-dependency care level beds. The current six bed critical care admits around 500 patients per annum. The case mix will be diverse given our large geographical catchment area with the ability to cater for general medical, surgical and trauma patients. Paediatric and burns patients can also be stabilised and cared for in the ICU until aeromedical transportation to other centres can be arranged if required.
During our recruitment phase of remodelling our critical care unit duties will be conducted as part of a shared roster with anaesthesia department colleagues. Clinical and non-clinical duties will be rostered as per ASMS contract agreement. You will be expected to undertake a full share of the Intensive Care on-call roster with other members of the team. With the development of our service other duties will include participation in teaching and supervision of junior doctors, nurses and medical students, team ward rounds, quality and safety activities, audit and clinical review meetings.
Come and join us at Southland Hospital at the start of our journey!
