**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 bed 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 Department of Neurology and Stroke at North Canberra Hospital is seeking an unaccredited neurology registrar who is focused on the delivery of high quality, effective, patient-centric care.

The neurology registrar will contribute to the neurology and stroke service by undertaking care of both inpatients and outpatients under the supervision of the consultant neurologists in the department. The registrar will run a rapid-access, category 1 clinics, including a TIA/stroke clinic and general neurology clinic. Participation in neurology clinics including EEG and NCS may be possible upon discussion and agreement with the head of department and the organisation.

It is expected that the registrar will participate in 2-3 outpatient clinics per week including sub specialty clinics and in addition, the registrar will contribute to the out-of-hours, on-call roster for neurology and stroke in 1:4 roster. These on-call duties include assessment and management of acute stroke patients who may require acute therapy (thrombolysis and assess suitability for endovascular clot retrieval) and undertaking ward rounds on weekends, suitable support by the on-call consultant will be provided.

The registrar will gain experience in management of stroke and assessment and selection of patients for acute therapy and endovascular clot retrieval. The registrar will obtain exposure and training in advanced imaging for acute stroke and will become confident in the interpretation of multimodal CT (CTA and CTP) and MRI. The registrar will also gain experience in management of complex neurology patient care, both inpatient and outpatients.

Department will provide education, support and training for the registrar to gain experience in neurology and if the applicant is motivated to do formal neurology advanced training, then support will be provided to the registrar.

There will also be the opportunity for the registrar to participate in research projects in neurology.
