POSITION PROFILE

Consultants in Emergency Medicine who are successful to this role will work at the WA Virtual Emergency Department (WAVED) which is in St John Ambulance WA Operations Centre – Belmont.

Services will include the following:

• Comprehensive clinical service in Emergency Medicine to patients of WA Virtual Emergency Department (WAVED).
• Opportunity to promote quality health outcomes for emergency medicine.
• Provides clinical expertise and leadership for WAVED services to internal and external customers.

ABOUT THE STATE HEALTH OPERATIONS CENTRE (SHOC)

The State Health Operations Centre (SHOC) aims to improve the coordination and efficiency of patient flow services, establishing new functions to manage the demand on emergency departments and ease system pressures. These functions include patient transport services; call taking; triage and dispatch (St John WA); virtual emergency care and establishing situational awareness of demand and pressure across health service providers and St John WA by ensuring collective system-wide access to data, analysis and predict analytics capability.

ABOUT THE WA VIRTUAL EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT

The WA Virtual Emergency Department (WAVED) will give patients the option of being seen virtually in the comfort of their own home when safe and appropriate to do so, rather than waiting in an emergency department (ED). This partnership between the Department of Health, Health Service Providers (HSPs) and St John WA provides patients with clinically appropriate alternative care options and help reduce visits to the ED. This will help alleviate pressures on Western Australia’s hospitals and ensure that beds are available for those who most need them.

Older adults within residential aged care facilities in the Perth metropolitan area are one of the initial priorities for WAVED as they are at much greater risk of experiencing harm from a hospital visit, such as hospital acquired infections, falls, loss of muscle mass/function and delirium. Further targeted cohorts of patients will be included into the service over the next 18 months.

Many other states in Australia have successfully implemented virtual emergency care services, which have proven to be safe, effective and provide excellent patient experience.

Shape the Future of Mental Healthcare in the Kimberley.

Are you a dynamic and innovative Psychiatrist dedicated to delivering services that address the distinctive requirements of the Kimberley community?

If so, WA Country Health Service is a seeking Psychiatrist for the Broome Mental Health Service.

We currently have 1 FTE vacant and can provide a Fixed-Term Full-Time contract for five years, with potential extensions.

About the Role

Opportunity Awaits: At the Broome Mental Health Unit (BMHU), we cover the expansive Kimberley and Pilbara regions, providing an incredible breadth of clinical experiences that contribute to a meaningful and dynamic daily practice. As an integral part of this team, you'll connect with hospitals across the regions and adult community mental health services, making a profound impact on mental healthcare delivery. Also, exciting projects are on the horizon such as the High Dependency Unit redesign. As part of this project you'll shape the future of our inpatient services and contribute to innovative solutions that enhance the patient experience.

Meaningful and Holistic Care: Acute inpatient care of Aboriginal patients tends to be more holistic overall and necessarily draws from a much broader pool of expertise and knowledge. One of the foundations of this diversity includes the knowledge and experience of Aboriginal Liaison Officers who provide invaluable wisdom about individuals, families, and communities. Seeing clients recover with treatment that is sensitive to their culture and beliefs provides opportunities to understand mental illness far more profoundly. Along the way, learning how symptoms of mental illness is conceptualised and the symbolism that it holds provides lessons and practical understanding that is not readily taught in formal psychiatric training.

Additionally, there is a significantly lower proportion of adjustment disorders/situational crises as a proportion of total presentations compared with metropolitan services.

Supportive Team Dynamics: As part of our passionate and multidisciplinary team, you'll experience direct and regular communication with the Clinical Director. Weekly service meetings feature robust case discussions, fostering collaboration and shared expertise. Our inpatient team is a cohesive unit comprising a trainee psychiatry registrar, an intern, five dedicated Aboriginal Liaison Officers, an Occupational Therapist, a Social Worker, a Nurse Unit Manager, and a skilled Nursing team.

Beyond the inpatient setting, you'll play a crucial role as the Clinical Lead for the Psychiatry Liaison Nurse (PLN) Service. Here, you'll conduct daily clinical reviews, encompassing ED presentations, community referrals for inpatient admissions, triage contacts, and consultation-liaison psychiatric cases in the general hospital. This multidimensional approach ensures your expertise touches a wide spectrum of care.

Guidance and Supervision: Your influence extends to the mentorship and supervision of three doctors under your leadership. This includes two trainee psychiatry registrars, one in the inpatient setting, and the other dedicated to Consultation Liaison, along with an inpatient intern.

Patient Demographics and Common Presentations: Patient demographics are diverse, ranging from young adults to the elderly, with a significant Aboriginal population. In the inpatient setting, 80-90% of our patients are Aboriginal people. Common presentations encompass first episode psychosis in youth/young adulthood, relapses of primary psychotic illnesses, mood disorders, and a focus on substance use disorders and drug-induced mood disorders.

Your Impact: As the Consultant Psychiatrist, you'll be responsible for the provision of specialized medical psychiatric services to the Broome Mental Health Unit. Your role will encompass clinical leadership, assessment, treatment, liaison, and consultation services. You'll assume clinical responsibility for BMHU staff practice and patient management standards. Your dedication to supervision, training, and instruction to junior medical staff is instrumental in shaping the future of mental healthcare in the Kimberley. As a key member of the multidisciplinary and management team for BMHU, you'll adhere to the Western Australian Mental Health Act (2014) legislation.

Join us in Broome and let your expertise help guide the future of mental healthcare in the Kimberley!

You'll conduct approximately 2 to 3 deliveries per week, with a focus on low to medium-risk deliveries, ensuring the safety and well-being of expectant mothers and their newborns. In the event of high-risk situations, we maintain a seamless transfer process to Perth, located just 2 hours away, guaranteeing access to advanced medical care. Our hospital boasts a state-of-the-art maternity birthing suite, complete with a two-bed birthing suite and a spacious bath for water births, enhancing the birthing experience. Additionally, we have a four-bed ward dedicated to postnatal care, where you will provide exceptional support. Operating within a midwifery group practice style, you'll foster continuity of care and collaborate closely with General Practitioners Obstetricians (GPOs) during regular visits.

Anaesthetics Overview:

In addition to supporting the ED, you will play a vital part in delivering anaesthesia services, particularly for challenging cases including procedural sedation and airway management. Our hospital is well-equipped, with upgraded theatres and an array of state-of-the-art equipment, providing you with the tools needed to excel in your role.

Surgeries are performed approximately four days a week at Narrogin Hospital, and you will collaborate closely with visiting general surgeons, gynaecologists, and orthopaedic specialists, as well as occasional minor plastic surgeons, and eye surgeons. This diverse surgical environment offers a unique opportunity to broaden your anaesthesia expertise and contribute to a wide range of medical procedures. As a critical member of our healthcare team, you will also play a pivotal role in assisting our 24/7 on-call service for maternity cases, including caesarean sections and other obstetrics procedures.

ED shifts are 12 hours, either day or night shifts, with support from JMOs during the day. Working an ED shift you will be working on-the-floor, and when on-call the GPA would support the ED doctor with airway issues, vascular access, and sicker patients, and the GPO would support ED with some gynaecology or maternity presentations, as well as covering maternity on-call.  In-patient ward shifts are 8 hours, with support from JMOs.
