BASIC INFORMATION<br />
<br />
Ballarat Health Services is the major provider of hospital and healthcare services in<br />
Western Victoria. Ballarat Health Services was formed in 1997 through the merger<br />
of the Base Hospital (acute medical, surgical, obstetric, paediatric, critical care and<br />
emergency services) Queen Elizabeth Centre (aged care, rehabilitation and<br />
palliative care), and Grampians Psychiatric Services (acute, aged and community<br />
psychiatric services). Ballarat Health Services provides services to a regional<br />
population of 200,000 people. Ballarat Health Services is comprised of<br />
approximately 370 acute beds (including 8 ICU/CCU beds, 23 ED beds, 3<br />
resuscitation bays, 67 acute mental health beds), and 525 residential care and<br />
rehabilitation beds.<br />
REASONS TO APPLY<br />
We are large enough to deal with complex and high acuity patients. Interns<br />
receive an intensive orientation program. Weekly intern training (paid and<br />
protected time) takes place on a Thursday evening and is guided by the Australian<br />
Curriculum Framework for Junior Doctors. All interns receive BLS training early.<br />
HMO training is a combination of formal lectures (including regular grand round<br />
presentations), bedside teaching, unit-specific teaching (M&M meetings, pathology<br />
and radiology meetings, multidisciplinary meetings), and online resources and<br />
guides. A mentoring program is also available to interested Interns.<br />
Completing your Intern year at Ballarat Health Services will ensure that you<br />
experience hands-on learning in a supportive and well-supervised environment.
