The Position
Valley Road Medical Centre is seeking to recruit at least one full-time GP. The practice is an accredited training practice and it welcomes enquiries from vocationally recognised and non-vocationally recognised GPs. The GP will be required to participate in the after-hours roster as well as visit patients in the local aged care facilities. All GPs at the practice provide a comprehensive range of medical services including consulting, minor procedures and counselling.
The Organisation
Valley Road Medical Centre is a well-established family practice, located only minutes from the Devonport CBD. The practice came under new ownership in late 2013 and the practice has recently been extended to include some new consulting rooms and a new waiting room. The practice also has two treatment rooms and a nurses' office.
Nine GPs currently work in the practice. The practice employs 3 full-time registered nurses to assist with day-to-day medical care and two other registered nurses to conduct aged care assessments.
The practice currently operates Monday to Friday from 8.00am to 6.00pm and every second Saturday from 9.00am – 3.00pm. The practice utilises the after-hours triage service of GP Assist to minimise out-of-hours calls and also shares a weekend roster with three other practices. The practice is a bulk billing practice.
What's on offer?
The practice is offering a competitive remuneration package based on percentage of earnings and welcomes discussions with potential candidates.
In conjunction with the practice, HR+ will organise a comprehensive orientation program on arrival.
Doctors trained outside Australia working in this location will meet the moratorium requirements after nine years of practice.
