Details
An Eastern NSW hospital requires Specialist in Obstetrics & Gynaecology for the following date(s).
Shift(s) details as below:
from 25/04/2025 08:00 to 26/04/2025 08:00 at $3000 per day
from 09/06/2025 08:00 to 10/06/2025 08:00 at $3000 per day
You'll play a pivotal role in delivering high-quality obstetric and gynaecological care to our patients. From the birthing suite to acute gynaecology consultations and antenatal/postnatal care, your expertise will be instrumental in ensuring the health and well-being of women throughout their pregnancy journey. Your responsibilities will include attending morning handover at 0800hrs on all days rostered on call, conducting ward rounds of gynaecology, antenatal, and high-risk postnatal patients. While adherence to these duties is paramount, exceptions may be made if fatigue from overnight clinical work necessitates a later ward round. Compliance with NSW Health requirements, including timely consultant review of new admissions within 24 hours, is essential. Locums presenting for more than 4 days on-call will require a mandatory rest day for fatigue management. On weekdays, the locum on call is required to stay on site between the hours of 0800-1630. On weekends, after completing the morning ward round and any urgent clinical work, the locum may be offsite but must remain within 30 minutes of the hospital for the entire on-call duration. Hospital is currently performing over 2000 births per year, to accommodate this activity, inductions of labour are routinely scheduled 7 days a week. Theatre cover is available onsite 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and thus birth suite activity should not be deferred due to a lack of theatre cover after hours (although may be for other clinical reasons). Expect nothing less than high-level support from our dedicated team, ensuring seamless coordination and assistance throughout your clinical duties. You'll have access to 24/7 junior support and will be first on-call, providing you with the support you need to deliver exceptional patient care.
