Alfred Health
Alfred Health is a leader in health care delivery, improvement, research and education. We are the main provider of health services to people living in the inner southeast suburbs of Melbourne, from ambulatory to inpatient and home and community-based services.
Alfred Health is currently seeking applications for an Anaesthesia Registrar starting from February 2023.
The Alfred is a large public teaching hospital in Melbourne, part of Alfred Health, along with Sandringham Hospital and Caulfield Medical Centre (aged care and rehab). The Alfred is a tertiary referral centre where all adult surgical specialties are performed except obstetrics/gynae, which occurs at Sandringham. The Alfred provides several state services including major trauma, burns and adult cardiothoracic transplantation and the anaesthetic department delivers over 26,000 anaesthetics/year across 18 operating theatres, endoscopy suites, procedure rooms and further off the floor locations in radiology, cardiology and ECT suites.
The Alfred is part of the Eastern rotation of the Victorian Anaesthetic Training Scheme. Our department is committed to providing excellent educational programs and is proud of a strong record of exam success. In addition to protected weekly teaching time, dedicated programs run throughout the year to support registrars preparing for both part 1 and 2 exams.
The department has an active research team, participating in several large, often international multicentre trials at any point in time. There are also many quality assurance audits and projects which trainees can become involved.
The key responsibility of this role is to provide anaesthetic care to Alfred Health patients under the supervision of a consultant anaesthetist. The successful candidate will also have the opportunity to contribute to teaching and education programs where appropriate.
Enquiries should be directed to Dr Alan Kakos, Dr Matt Richardson & Dr Sarah Palermo, Supervisors of Training, at [email protected]
