An exciting opportunity exists to join the NSW Psychiatry Training Program as a Stage 2 or 3 Trainee
The NSW Psychiatry Training Program offers a coordinated, networked approach to training that brings together the health system, hospitals, the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists (RANZCP) and experienced doctors to ensure that the on-the-job training available in NSW is the best on offer in Australia.
Your training journey will begin at hospitals across NSW Health, working with people who have a psychiatric illness in a supportive, multi-disciplinary team context and under the supervision of an experienced consultant psychiatrist. You will be welcomed into hospitals, departments and clinics across NSW, and supported by Network staff, doctors and other health professionals committed to sharing their knowledge and skills.
The breadth of opportunities available in metropolitan, regional and rural centres will shape your development and learnings, provide experience with local communities and support your progression through the RANZCP training requirements.
As a Trainee, you will join one of the 5 Psychiatry Training Networks in NSW:
-
Hunter New England Training Network (HNET)
-
Northern Sydney Central Coast Network (NSCC)
-
South Eastern Sydney Illawarra Training Network (SESI)
-
Sydney South West North Coast Network (SSWNC)
-
Sydney West Greater Southern Network (SWaGS)
Further information on each of the NSW Psychiatry Training Networks, and rural preferencing, can be found here
All Psychiatry Training Networks offer experience at training sites that are busy, dynamic and characterised by a wide variety of presentations and patient populations. The Networked approach gives you access to a complete RANZCP accredited training program including Stage 1 and Stage 2 (Basic) training and completion of Stage 3 (Advanced) training.
Each Network optimises the quality of training available at each site and ensures the equitable distribution of trainees to terms across the Network. Rotation through the different terms of the Psychiatry training program provides exposure to a broad range of sub-specialty areas and facilitates learning through clinical and individual supervision, dedicated teaching time and access to a Formal Education Course of your choice.
