As part of an organisation dedicated to improving the health of all South Australians, you will be responsible for managing the care of all hyperacute (<24 hours duration) stroke patients in consultation with the responsible Consultants, Nurses and Allied Health professionals.

You will maintain a high standard of patient care for stroke and TIA inpatients and outpatients, whether admitted under the Stroke Unit or when consulting for patients admitted under other units.

You will provide effective and accurate clinical handover of patient care at the change of daily shifts and at the change of clinical attachment.

It is essential that you hold a Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) or equivalent and be registered with the Medical Board of Australia as a Medical Practitioner with General Registration.

You will possess sound knowledge of contemporary medical practice and procedures appropriate to the position, complementing your ability to work under pressure.

In addition to proven competency in a range of routine and common procedural ward-based skills, you will be a demonstrated problem solver.

You will be supported in devising and complete a stroke research project in your year. Subsequent higher degree by research opportunities will ensue.
