| Conditions: | With opening hours across Monday -Friday from 8am – 12pm and 1pm – 4.30pm, in this busy role you will be working as a solo GP with a fantastic support system of Remote Area Nurses, and Aboriginal Health Practitioners.

The Visionflex telehealth system is available that assists when a face-to-face consultation is unavailable and the RFDS provide retrieval support if required. If you have suitable 4WD training, you will be able to drive yourself to outreach sites (Mulan and Billiluna) however if not a member of staff will drive you to each clinic. These are day visits and as such you will return to Balgo each day where you will stay. Accommodation is self-contained, has aircon, satellite tv and internet is available, although can be patchy. Balgo (Wirrimanu) is one of Australian’s most remote Aboriginal communities located in the south-east Kimberley region of Western Australia on the northern edge of the Great Sandy Desert and on the western edge of the Tanami Desert. The Community is approximately 1100km east of Broome and 250km south of Halls Creek with a population of approximately 400-500.
