Medical Staff in the Canberra Health Services enjoy excellent conditions, and our Enterprise Agreement is available at: ACTPS Medical Practitioners Enterprise Agreement 2021-2022

The Department of Paediatrics and Child Health is the principal centre for children’s medical and surgical services in the ACT. There is a large and energetic inpatient department for Paediatric and Adolescent Medicine and Paediatric Surgery. The outpatient department has been developed to reflect current out-patient models of care and gives trainees broad exposure to a range of general and subspecialty paediatric surgery, including paediatric urology, paediatric neonatal surgery, paediatric thoracic surgery, and paediatric general surgery. The department also provides an innovative teaching program for students from the Australian National University Medical School. The department is staffed by one Staff Specialist and four Visiting Medical Specialists. There is currently one Registrar who is accredited for training by RACS.
The successful applicant will support the specialists and the accredited registrar in provision of a safe and efficient service by participating in ward rounds, outpatient clinics, education, and audit meetings. Whilst priority will be given to the accredited registrar for access to the operating theatres as part of the training requirements, the successful candidate will also be given opportunities to participate in operating theatre sessions from time to time as required.

The on-call commitment is expected to be one in four, with prospective cover for Paediatric Surgery, with registrars from the General Surgery pool contributing to the on-call roster. There is no expectation to provide cover for the General Surgery on call roster.

Prior to commencement, the successful candidates will be required to:

  • Undergo a pre-employment National Police Check
  • Comply with Canberra Health Services Occupational Assessment, Screening and Vaccination policy
