About the department:
The Department of Anaesthesia is located on Level 2 of the Austin Tower.
The Department comprises 37 full time Staff Anaesthetists, 72 Visiting Anaesthetists, 23 Anaesthesia Registrars/Fellows, 6 Critical Care HMOs, 3 Research Nurses, 8 Pain Nurses, 10 Anaesthesia Liaison Nurses, and 5 Administrative Staff.
The Austin operating theatre complex is situated on Level 2 of the Harold Stokes building and consists of 11 theatres, 2 endoscopy suites and 2 procedure rooms.
The Surgery Centre opened in 2008 on the Repatriation Campus. It is an autonomous elective surgery centre but is incorporated into Austin Health. It consists of 8 theatres, an endoscopy room, and a procedure room, and has a separate Head of Anaesthesia. Administrative services are provided by the Department of Anaesthesia at the Austin Campus.
Most surgical specialties, apart from Cardiac Transplantation, Obstetrics and Complex Paediatric Surgery, are undertaken at the Austin and are covered by the Department.
The Austin also has a Pain Service encompassing acute and chronic pain.
There is a strong research structure in the Department with a Head of Research supported by 3 research nurses.
The Austin is co-located with the Mercy Hospital for Women and whilst the Anaesthesia Departments at both hospitals are separate, they have close ties.
It is recognised that an anaesthesia department at a teaching hospital needs a wider range of skills than any one anaesthetist could have.
Therefore each individual anaesthetist will need to bring their own set of skills which will complement those of others and enable the department to cover all contingencies and provide a comprehensive service.
No individual anaesthetist can be expected to be proficient in every area of modern anaesthesia.About the role:
