Locum GP

Enjoy a well-supported inpatient locum role in coastal SA, with great pay, lifestyle, and perks.

The Job

Setting: You will be responsible for admission of patients whose usual GP doesn’t have admitting rights to the Hospital. Duties include management of general medical, low complexity mental health, orthopaedics and urology. There are generally a few patients awaiting transfer. In addition to this rehab patients without a community admitting GP are usually admitted under the inpatient doctor, with their rehabilitation related treatment under the care of Flinders Medical Centre.
You may also be required to look after any low complexity surgical inpatients over the weekend, with support from remote on call surgeons. You will be supported by an RMO for the ward round, depending on staffing and rostering. If an RMO is present, they usually then work in ED in the afternoon. All calls and jobs after 12pm will need to be done by the GP....
