Full Job Description

Working as a General Practitioner (GP) in a remote community will expand your skills and knowledge far beyond the medical field. Learn about what it’s like to work as a NT Remote Locum Program GP and how to apply.

Work as a remote GP

We recruit GPs as casual employees or contractors for 3 to 12 week paid placements in remote Aboriginal communities in the NT.

Your contribution will improve access to quality healthcare and generate better health outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

NT Remote Locum Program GP role

NT Remote Locum Program GPs work as part of a dynamic and diverse team to deliver holistic, culturally safe primary healthcare.

Your team will include highly knowledgeable Aboriginal health practitioners, nurses, drivers and administration staff. Their remote healthcare experience will support you in your important role.

What you can expect as a NT Remote Locum Program GP

We’ll take care of the arrangements for your placement. Throughout the process, we will talk to you and the health service you will work with.

As you transition to a remote setting, you will have ongoing support so you can concentrate on providing a quality service to the community.

Before your first placement, we'll provide:

cultural orientation
clinical orientation valid for Cat 1 CPD points with ACCRM.

If it’s your first time working in a remote setting, you can also request a Remote Educator to help you to transition your skills and experience into a new environment.

As an urban-based GP, you already have the skills to work in a remote community. But the health issues you work with in remote communities might be different to those in urban and rural areas.

You can expect to expand your skills and knowledge. We provide plenty of resources to support your new experiences, including the NT Remote Locum Program eLearning program.

So you can transition smoothly, we will provide :

free online training valid for CPD with ACRRM
24/7 support
information about the community where your placement is, and logistical information about travelling to, living and working there.

Eligibility to apply

Remote health services select NT Remote Locum Program GPs based on their local healthcare needs.

For this to happen, you must first become ‘credentialed’ with the NT Remote Locum Program. This means you send us the below information when you apply, and we provide this to an external expert.

They will certify that you have the experience needed for a NT Remote Locum Program placement.
Once you’re credentialed, you can respond to EOIs (expressions of interest) for placements. Our workforce coordinators send these out.

We send your EOI responses to the remote health service, and they may select you for a placement.
Becoming credentialed doesn’t guarantee a placement. It only gives you access to EOIs for upcoming placements.

Respond to EOI requests every time you want to do a placement. You can do more than one placement this way.

To help with the credentialing process, have these things ready when you apply to be a NT Remote Locum Program GP.
