Experience the appeal of South Coast NSW, where your medical career can thrive in a welcoming and relaxed
environment. Our program offers a unique opportunity to balance professional development with the coastal lifestyle,
featuring beautiful beaches, scenic landscapes, and a friendly local community. Enjoy a range of outdoor activities,
including surfing, hiking, and mountain biking, all while benefiting from a tranquil work-life balance. Join us for a year and

What you'll be doing

This is a 12 month, four term rotational position within the Coastal Network Senior Resident Medical Officer (SRMO)
program, with rotations in paediatrics and obstetrics.



The paediatric and obstetric rotations include a component of time in rural general practice, with supervision from a rural
generalist. It is based in South East Regional Hospital, a 100 bed facility on the south coast of NSW.
The trainee will be part of a departmental roster providing experience for JMOs wishing to develop a baseline practical
skillset for the management of patients in the acute inpatient and GP setting.


This Child and Maternal Health SRMO program would suit trainees considering a career in rural general practice as a
Rural Generalist, or in the specialties of Paediatrics, and Obstetrics/Gynaecology. Trainees will be given responsibilities
and opportunities for autonomous practice commensurate with their experience. This will be accompanied by appropriate
supervision, training and support to enable development of relevant skills during the training year.


Our program begins with a comprehensive orientation designed to familiarise you with our hospital's operations, culture,
and will ensure a baseline level of competency at core skills required for the position. You will benefit from the weekly
training program during the year, which will include hands-on clinical experiences, simulation-based education, interactive
workshops, and integration into our multidisciplinary teams. The teaching program will be complemented by ongoing
mentorship from experienced senior medical staff, ensuring you receive personalised guidance and support.
Accommodation is provided for the full 12 months of the program and there is a small travel allowance available.


The Rural Child and Maternal Health SRMOs work and learn alongside our Rural Critical Care SRMOs in a single
program at SERH. If you are interested in both positions, please concurrently apply for position CAM30302. Applicants
who apply for both positions will have the opportunity to submit preferences at the time of interview.
