CARED is building a new kind of primary care model: high-quality, proactive GP care delivered where people live, inside our vertical villages.
Our participants live independently in their own apartments, but many experience complex disability, chronic disease, communication challenges, and significant psychosocial comorbidity. They often attend external GP clinics frequently. We’re bringing consistent, relationship-based general practice into the community to strengthen continuity, reduce preventable deterioration, and support better day-to-day health outcomes.
This is an opportunity to practise meaningful, high-impact medicine in a model designed for:
continuity and trust
time with complex patients
real multidisciplinary collaboration
hospital avoidance and safer transitions of care
Assigned to a defined region as the consistent GP presence
Regular weekly visits to the same participant community
Approximately 15–20 consultations/day using a blend of:
Acute presentations, triage and escalation
Chronic disease management and preventive care
Mental health and psychosocial complexity
Capacity‑ and communication‑aware consultations
Medication safety, review and post‑discharge reconciliation
Work closely with allied health, support coordination, village operations and behaviour support
Participate in case discussions where clinically relevant
Provide practical, participant‑centred recommendations aligned with goals and support plans
Support safe escalation pathways
