GP and Nursing Training
GP Registrars Training Post
Goondir commenced its GP Registrar training program in 1999.
Goondir continues to offer GP Registrars the opportunity to undertake their training specialising in Aboriginal health within an Aboriginal Community Controlled health service facility. Placement periods vary and are designed to immerse GP Registrars into Goondir’s comprehensive and culturally responsive model of primary health care.
Training is offered in a supportive learning environment where the GP Registrar works under the supervision of our General Practitioners (GPs) and alongside our Aboriginal Health Practitioners and Registered Nurses (RNs) to provide holistic, culturally appropriate health care with integrated preventive programs.
Goondir’s point of difference for GP Registrars includes exposure and experience with:
- Universities and Research Facilities
- Aboriginal health and Chronic Disease Management
- Extensive access to visiting health professionals such as Heart of Australia
- Extensive access to allied health professionals commensurate with urban services
- Point of Care Testing?
The Goondir experience also allows involvement in outreach services to outlying rural and remote townships serviced by Goondir.
