The Role and Hospital
You will have exposure to a varied case mix in a regional ICU working with an extremely dynamic, supportive, and friendly team, including intensive care trainees.

The Intensive Care Unit provides 16 intensive care beds to adult and paediatric patients, in addition to providing a range of Intensive Care Outreach Services. The ICU admits over 800 acute admissions annually, including 50-60 paediatric patients and an additional 100 elective procedural admissions. The ICU has an established leadership team with strong relationships across the HHS. An active education program supports a well-resourced medical and nursing workforce that manages a diverse, challenging, and rewarding case mix that includes trauma, interventional cardiology, general surgery, infectious diseases, tropical, and complex medical presentations. Paediatric patients are managed collaboratively with local paediatricians and closely supported by tertiary PICU specialists in Townsville.

To reflect the growing demand for healthcare in the region, the Mackay Base Hospital has been redeveloped, at a cost of $408 million with a current bed capacity of 236 beds. The redeveloped hospital is a digital hospital, equipped with leading-edge technology. It is the first regional hospital in Queensland to have the complete integrated electronic medical record.

Requirements
Applicants should be registered (or eligible for registration) as a specialist with the Medical Board of Australia and Fellowship of the College of Intensive Care Medicine of Australia and New Zealand (FCICM) or equivalent as an overseas-trained specialist who has completed their training in either the UK, Ireland, Canada, USA, or New Zealand.

The Location
Mackay is a region located on the central coast of Queensland, stretching from secluded islands off the coast through golden sand beaches and into lush sub-tropical rainforests. The historic town of Mackay is filled with 1920s Art Deco buildings and public artworks, as well as a vibrant dining precinct. The region offers a range of outdoor activities, including seeing wallabies on the beach at Cape Hillsborough National Park, diving with shy platypus in Eungella National Park, or throwing a line in at some of the state's best fishing spots.
