**Local Work Environment**:
Sunshine Hospital ICU is a 13-bed mixed medical, surgical & obstetric adult ICU, admitting approximately 1100 patients per year (funded to 12 ICU equivalents). By comparison to other metropolitan ICUs, patients admitted to Sunshine ICU are relatively young, with very high severity of illness scores. It is one of two ICUs within Western Health (WH), with the other 14 bed ICU located at Footscray Hospital. The new 1.5 billion-dollar Footscray Hospital is currently being built and is expected to open in 2025.

Sunshine Hospital (a 25-minute drive from Melbourne CBD) is a very busy metropolitan hospital, with 600 hospital beds, including medical, surgical, psychiatric, obstetric & paediatric patients. The Joan Kirner Women’s and Children’s centre (on the Sunshine site) opened in 2019 and has increased the capacity to manage obstetric, paediatric, and neonatal patients on site. Whilst Sunshine ICU does admit obstetric patients it does not admit paediatric patients and ICU medical staff are not required to attend paediatric MET calls or Code Blues.

The ICU consultant group at Western Health work across both Footscray & Sunshine sites, are all FCICM qualified, and have a variety of subspecialty interests and expertise (e.g. education, mentoring, echocardiography, communication, organ donation, health informatics, research).
