Doctors in Training 2023 - Emergency Medicine Registrar

The Royal Hobart Hospital is the tertiary referral centre for the state of Tasmania. It is the state’s trauma centre, as well as providing a wide variety of specialty services. Our busy, Emergency Department provides care for 70 000 patients annually. Approximately 25% of the case load is paediatric. We also run a 20 bed Emergency Medical Unit.

The department is accredited for 36 months of training with ACEM, or two years of advanced training under the pre-2022 program. We have a wide variety of non-ED rotations available, including anaesthetics, intensive care, paediatrics, and medical education/simulation. We have also supported candidates through other rotations including hyperbaric medicine and neonatal/paediatric ICU. Our mixed ED is accredited for the paediatric log book and we have PEMs on staff.

Rostering is flexible to help maintain a work-life balance. We are very understanding of the importance of time outside of work and are able to accommodate part time needs.

The education program is highly valued within the department and runs as a full day each week. Registrars are specifically rostered to these days to avoid clinical demands interfering with their attendance.

In addition to the whole cohort education program there are separate and dedicated preparation programs for the ACEM primary and fellowship examinations. We have further education support for candidates completing the Emergency Medicine Certificate, Diploma, and Advanced Diploma.

The Royal Hobart Hospital recognises the value of clinicians from a wide variety of backgrounds and are able to provide support to registrars across all levels of experience.

Applicants are advised that in accordance with Tasmanian Public Health Directions, all employees of the Department of Health must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19. This step is critical in protecting both our health workforce and vulnerable Tasmanians in our care.
