North Brisbane Locum| Maintenance in the Home (MiTH)
ForHealth, in partnership with Hospital in Your Home, is seeking a General Practitioner for the Maintenance in the Home (MiTH) program.
MiTH is a virtual subacute ward. Frail older people who no longer need acute care stay admitted under the health service and are looked after at home, with intensive nursing and allied health support. This is subacute medicine delivered through a combination of home-based and virtual care, not consulting-room general practice.
What we offer
A team of nurses, allied health, social work, pharmacy services and personal care staff to support day-to-day care delivery
A 24/7 nurse line and a shared on-call roster, with cover for leave, weekends and public holidays
Supported onboarding before you take on care responsibility
Passive remote monitoring and a shared electronic health record to support patient care and monitoring
Case conferences and governance activity that can support CPD
Remuneration that is not dependent on MBS billings, discussed with shortlisted applicants
A team supporting our locum GPs and their patients, with technology that helps monitor and pick up changes in patient conditions
About you
FRACGP or FACRRM
Current general registration with AHPRA, without relevant conditions
Current medical indemnity insurance appropriate to home-based and community practice
Experience caring for frail older people with complex comorbidity, including recognising and responding to deterioration outside a hospital
Willingness to do home visits, with a current driver’s licence and vehicle
Confident use of digital clinical systems and telehealth
Satisfactory credentialing, including a National Police Check and current immunisation status meeting Queensland Health requirements
