About the role


Mater Mothers' Hospital's Neonatal Critical Care Unit (NCCU) is seeking a Registrar with neonatal experience to join the team as a
Neonatal Fellow on a full-time basis, commencing as soon as possible until February 2024, with the potential to continue in the role on a part-time basis.

Mater Mothers' Hospital (MMH) South Brisbane is Australia's largest maternity hospital, caring for over 11,000 births a year.

The Neonatal Critical Care Unit (NCCU) is also one of Australia's largest neonatal units and is a combined tertiary perinatal NICU as well as providing services often given in a children's hospital NICU, such as pre and post-operative surgical care, sub-speciality liaison and pre-operative cardiac care.

Over 2,000 babies from Queensland and Northern New South Wales receive care in the NCCU every year. The Mater NCCU consists of 42 intensive care cots and 34 special care cots.


The Mater South Brisbane campus is directly next to the Queensland Children's Hospital and this proximity and the close collaborative working relationship we have with QCH makes us a quaternary referral centre for babies with cardiac or surgical conditions or who require sub-speciality input into their care.
