This opportunity offers a combination of telehealth consultations and scheduled face-to-face visits, allowing GPs to provide ongoing, high-quality medical care to aged care residents while enjoying a structured and predictable working schedule.

We are ideally seeking Vocationally Registered (VR) GPs based in or near the regions listed below to minimise travel requirements. Doctors will generally be required to attend their allocated facilities approximately one day per month, with the remainder of their consultations conducted via telehealth.
