- Critical Care capable doctors to be “on call” for hospital transfers.
Details
A Metropolitan QLD hospital requires a Registrar/PHO in Intensive Care Medicine from the 28/09/2018 to the 01/10/2018.
We need Critical Care capable doctors to be “on call” for hospital transfers.
The Hospital ICU has to go to a 4 bed capacity as of today to accommodate infrastructure changes for digital transition.
The on-call shifts would be 8pm to 8am.
Need to be within 30 minutes of the hospital (accommodation can be arranged).
Need to be critical care skilled and able to manage an intubated ventilated patient.
They would need to be minimum registrar level with critical care experience. They will be transferring patients from and to critical care environments with either an ICU or an ED Resus trained nurse and using a hospital transfer pack (may be ICU or ED depending on the nurse).
Need to be critical care skilled and able to manage an intubated ventilated patient.
These transfers may be:
• ED to External ICU (due to no capacity in Ipswich ICU or needing tertiary input)
• ICU to External ICU (to make way for another patient from Ward or OT that may be too unstable for transfer)
• Operating Theatre (OT) to External ICU (although the preference may be to take a more stable ICU patient out to accommodate the OT case)
