2024 Intensive Care Registrar


ICU Registrars at Western Health gain a wide range of experience in adult intensive care medicine in a supportive and collaborative environment.

Our patients are relatively young with high severity of illness scores compared with other metropolitan ICUs.

We admit a combination of medical patients, elective and emergency surgical patients, and a significant number of obstetric patients at Sunshine Hospital ICU (there are more than 5500 deliveries/year at Sunshine Hospital).

The complexity of this group of patients has increased consequent to the opening of the Joan Kirner Women's and Children's Hospital in 2019.

Sunshine ICU is a 25-minute drive from Melbourne CBD. Sunshine ICU has 13 bedspaces and currently admits approximately 1200 critically ill adults per year. Footscray hospital is a 20-minute drive from Melbourne CBD. Footscray ICU has 14 bedspaces and currently admits approximately 850 critically ill adults per year. Each site is currently funded to 12 ICU equivalents (24 total across Western Health ICUs). We provide care to one of the most culturally diverse and rapidly growing metropolitan regions of Australia. The new 1.5 billion-dollar Footscray Hospital is currently being built and is expected to open in 2025.

A customized registrar teaching program is run by our team of Intensivists. This includes a dedicated consultant led primary examination teaching program.

Our protected weekly teaching program is multidisciplinary and interactive, frequently including simulation at the state of the art simulation centre at Sunshine Hospital.

Registrars are encouraged to attend other weekly educational activities including Mortality & Morbidity Audits, "interesting case" sessions, Journal Club, echocardiography teaching, and consultant led infectious disease/ ICU meetings.

Several of our Intensivists have extensive experience, and postgraduate qualifications, in echocardiography and ultrasound.

The opportunity exists for trainees to learn these skills via formal teaching sessions as well as at the bedside, and be supervised for postgraduate ultrasound qualifications.

Western Health also runs the BASIC course at least twice yearly, and participates in the Victorian Intensive Care Education Network.

We have CICM examiners on staff for both the CICM primary and fellowship exams.

The Department of Intensive Care is actively involved in research.

We are a member of the ANZICS Clinical Trials Group, with dedicated research coordinators and a research program including large ANZICS trials as well as local studies.

Registrars are encouraged to participate in research, and the opportunity exists to complete your formal project under the supervision of experienced and enthusiastic Intensivists at Western Health.

While designed for CICM trainees our positions also provide training recognized by the RACP, ANZCA, and ACEM. Trainees from these programs, or doctors who seek further experience prior to joining them, are encouraged to apply.

Mandatory Criteria:

Australian and New Zealand trained Medical Graduates:

General Registration with AHPRA and who have completed a minimum of 3 years full time medical employment post registration and with least two (2) years in the Australian or New Zealand Hospital System.


International Medical Graduates:
Limited/General Registration with AHPRA.
