Join the paediatric team at RCH in 2013!
Paediatric training in Victoria is organised by The Royal Children’s Hospital (RCH) and Monash Medical Centre (MMC).
Positions for paediatric training programs are usually for 12 months, starting in February.
Appointments for junior resident medical officer (JRMO), senior resident medical officer (SRMO) and registrar positions are made on a competitive basis. These positions usually consist of rotations through different units. Once appointed, JRMO and SRMOs can list preferences for possible rotations. A roster is then allocated, based on candidates’ preferences.
Appointments for senior registrar and fellow may be for 6 or 12 months, and are usually made by arrangement with individual departments.
Training is always under review
