Dubbo Health Service
About the role
Are you looking for a change?
You never know - regional New South Wales might be the place for you.
Dubbo Health Service is a
Level 5 maternity service
with a
Level 4 neonatal care nursery
, caring for babies from as early as 32 weeks' gestation.
Our catchment stretches as far west as Broken Hill and north to the Queensland border, serving a large and diverse population.
Each year, we deliver
1,*******,300 babies
, and only half of these families live within 50 km of Dubbo.
That means variety is guaranteed.
From low-risk and no-risk clients to complex, high-risk pregnancies, our team sees it all.
One moment you may be delivering a premature baby, the next you could be supporting a patient with hypertension and rapidly changing blood pressures.
Around
85% of antenatal care
is provided through the public hospital system, with models of care including midwife-led, MAPP program, high-risk antenatal clinics, and private obstetrician care.
We are a strong team of
75+ staff
, working across full time and part-time roles, including
Midwifery Educators, Midwifery Consultants, Clinical Midwifery Specialists, and supportive Managers
- you'll be well supported in your practice.
In Dubbo, the commute is stress-free - most of us travel less than 15 minutes to work, giving us more time doing the things we love, all while building a rewarding and meaningful career.
Dubbo Health Service gives you the opportunity to
use the full scope of your midwifery skills
.
Whether you're a newly registered midwife or have years of experience, there's a place for you here.




Some days you'll use every skill you have; on others, you'll be honing specific parts of your practice - no two days are ever the same.
We're also a teaching and training hub with a wide network of support.
Our team includes
Clinical Nurse Specialists, Midwifery Educators, Midwifery Managers
, and an experienced
Obstetrics Team
-
including registrars on the RANZCOG training program - all working together to deliver evidence-based care.
We support the next generation of health professionals through:
·
Direct-entry Midwifery Students
completing their clinical placements with us
·
Newly Registered Midwives
who are mentored and supported as they transition into practice
·
A postgraduate midwifery training program
, with six to nine students at any one time
·
Undergraduate Medical Students
from the University of Sydney's School of Rural Health training alongside us
Behind the scenes, our work is made possible by a dedicated Administration and Clerical Team, keeping everything running smoothly.
If you value variety, teamwork, and the chance to make a real impact in maternity care - Dubbo has it all.
