    - Provide high-quality patient transport care in your community
    - Casual positions in Warrnambool with salary packaging offered



    The organisation:

    When people talk about the Flying Doctor, thoughts generally turn to red-bellied planes undertaking rescue missions in the Outback. Our history, however, is heavily based in Victoria with four of the major founding figures hailing from remote and rural communities across the state. Furthermore, the first ratified Section of RFDS was Victoria, after a formal constitution was signed at Melbourne Town Hall in 1934.

    The current Victorian story is one that reflects today challenges for people living in remote and rural communities across the state, yet remains faithful to the original philosophy of "connecting people with care".

    While we do still transport people by air and by road, this work is complemented by delivering a range of primary health services. These services address the most common issues people living in country Victoria face when accessing health care.

    Our services:
    - Help overcome the burden of distance.
    - Enable people to receive care in their own community.
    - Help people take control of their own health.
    - Help overcome isolation.



    The team and position

    Mobile Patient Care (MPC) offers Non-Emergency Patient Transport primarily in Victoria and New South Wales. We work with a large fleet of ambulances and support our transport services with RFDS aircraft.

    MPC provides clinical care for people travelling from home to hospital, hospital to hospital and hospital to home, as well as transport to and from specialist clinics.

    Flying Doctor Mobile Patient Care are currently seeking applications from Ambulance Transport Attendants for casual positions in Warrnambool.

    • Provide high quality patient care and treatment during on-road transport
    • Develop and maintain positive working relationships with patients and stakeholders
    • Assess the effectiveness of any intervention in accordance with all RFDS MPC guidelines, NEPT regulations and within prescribed scope of practice.
    • Perform independently and problem solve within established policies and procedures
    • Work collaboratively with other team members
