**About the Hospital**:
North Canberra Hospital (formerly Calvary Public Hospital Bruce) and Clare Holland House are now run and operated by Canberra Health Services (CHS)

This is a significant milestone as the ACT Government moves towards delivering a new billion-dollar hospital on Canberra’s Northside.

The current North Canberra Hospital is a level 4 hospital that provides a range of acute and sub-acute services including community based care to the residents of the northside of Canberra and Southern NSW. North Canberra Hospital (NCH) is a 270 public hospital located in Canberra’s expanding northside. North Canberra Hospital operates a 24 hour Emergency Department. Inpatient services include general medicine, surgery, maternity, mental health and critical care.

Other service modalities include day surgery, specialist outpatient clinics, Hospital in the Home and the Geriatric Rapid Acute Care Evaluation service that reaches into aged care facilities across the ACT.

The new Northside Hospital will be built on the existing Calvary Hospital campus in Bruce. It will be a modern, state-of-the-art hospital for patients, visitors and its workforce and will provide more beds and increased services. Until then, it's business as usual at the NCH, and we'll keep providing high-quality care to our patients and community.

**About the role**:
The GRACE (Geriatric Rapid Acute Care Evaluation) team provides both outreach to residents in RACFs and limited in-reach for these residents during any hospital ED presentation or inpatient stay in order to facilitate an effective transition back to the RACF on discharge. The GRACE model of care focuses on supporting service providers to provide care within the RACF environment wherever possible, thereby preventing ED presentation and hospital admission. The GRACE team facilitates safe transitions between inpatient and outpatient care to avoid representation. The GRACE geriatricians also provide inpatient consultation to other inpatient teams to assist in management of delirium, BPSD and complex discharge planning for older adults.

The Staff Specialist Geriatrician promotes healthy aging through the care of older adults in both inpatient and outpatient settings based at the North Canberra Hospital (NCH). This position is responsible for providing clinical care and leadership within the GRACE team (Geriatric Rapid Acute Care Evaluation) operating from North Canberra Hospital and will be guided by current evidence based medical practice, to deliver quality and safe patient centred care. In addition to providing health care to older adults in Canberra and surrounding regions, the department is firmly committed to the education of both Advanced Trainees (ATs) and Basic Physician Trainees (BPTs).
