You will ensure that clinical services for patients and service users are delivered to the highest professional and ethical standards, across the General Adult psychiatric service.   The Hospital This hospital is Australia's second oldest hospital and first began serving the community in 1804. It is Tasmania?s largest hospital and its major referral centre. As the major clinical teaching and research centre, it works closely with the University of Tasmania and other institutions.   The Mental health facility offers a large range of specialist services including Adult and Community and Child and Adolescent care ensuring you are able to gain experience and increase your skills in your preferred sub specialty. Given the above, the facility is large enough to have most major specialties available yet small enough to be able to cater for individual?s training needs.   == The Location == This modern city is famous for its one of a kind natural setting including pristine untouched wilderness that surrounds it.
