<br />
Hervey Bay Hospital is a 209-bed facility providing medical staff with broad clinical<br />
exposure, hands on experience and great access to procedural skills. Interns have<br />
direct contact with senior clinicians and active involvement in patient care, as well<br />
as innovative opportunities for clinical audits and research. Emergency Interns will<br />
have shifts in Hervey Bay and Maryborough Hospitals. Mental Health Interns will<br />
gain experience in the Inpatient Unit and the Community Mental Health Unit. All<br />
other rotations are based in Hervey Bay Hospital. The Fraser Coast is an easy place<br />
to live due to its mild climate and easy drive to Brisbane. There are no traffic woes<br />
which means an easy 10 minute drive to work with plenty of free parking in the<br />
hospital grounds.<br />
