COLLINGWOOD, INNER NORTH EAST MELBOURNE - FULL OR PART TIME SPECIALIST IN RADIOLOGY

Specialist in Veterinary Radiology

The Centre for Animal Referral and Emergency (CARE) is seeking a registered specialist in veterinary radiology to join our friendly team.

About CARE

CARE is a busy, well-equipped, privately-owned, multi-specialist veterinary hospital located in Collingwood, on the fringe of Melbourne’s inner-CBD. It maintains a strong emphasis on the standard of patient and client care and is distinguished by the cooperative and complimentary involvement of specialist emergency and critical care, surgery, internal medicine, neurology, and diagnostic imaging services. The working environment is friendly and constructive, and the caseload moderated to allow emphasis on the quality, rather than the quantity, of patient care.

Existing diagnostic imaging facilities include digital radiography, Phillips Affinity 50G ultrasound, Siemens Somatom 16-slice CT and Phillips BV29 mobile C-arm fluoroscopy with digital subtraction angiography. Beyond this, there is a strong commitment to the continued expansion and advancement of on-site imaging facilities, with PACS system and digital radiography upgrades in process and future plans for high-field MRI installation.

The position

An opportunity exists for a specialist in diagnostic imaging who enjoys and values integration and positive interaction with specialists in other clinical fields with the intention of optimising patient management. This clinical exposure has the potential to be interesting and rewarding, and the direct involvement of the diagnostic imaging specialist in clinical problem solving is well established, welcomed, and well respected among existing staff of the hospital.

The position involves performing and providing reports for diagnostic ultrasound examinations, the ad hoc provision of diagnostic imaging advice and interpretation to facilitate case management within the hospital, responding to email enquiries from bona fide referring veterinarians for assessment of diagnostic images and, when possible, the provision of written reports for CT studies performed within the hospital.

Further to the clinical aspects of the role, the diagnostic imaging specialist is central in the provision of advice on the purchase and upgrade of diagnostic imaging equipment and the ongoing expansion of existing imaging services at CARE. Active involvement in the provision of staff continuing education and contribution to the maintenance of diagnostic imaging protocols would be expected.

The working hours of the position are flexible and negotiable, being either part or full time depending on the availability of the successful applicant, and do not typically involve after-hours work. An attractive remuneration package would be negotiated, including four weeks’ annual leave and one week of study leave annually (full time pro-rata). Relocation assistance is available for successful interstate or international candidates.

How to apply

Applications, including letter of intent and CV, or any enquiries, should be directed to Ms Kelley Johnson at kjohnson@carevet.com.au

The emergency and critical care service receives internal and external case referrals, as well as numerous primary accession patients. Its operation is focused on the provision of exemplary after-hours patient care and the achievement of optimal outcomes for clients, patients, and their referring veterinarians.

The Position
This role would involve both professional and organisational aspects, with the focus on the maintenance and improvement of the operation, practices, and teamwork of the section. It would suit a thoughtful, team-oriented yet ambitious veterinarian with clinical experience in emergency and critical care. The ideal candidate would appreciate the rewards and challenges of working in the ICU, and work with the team to encourage commitment, creativity, and enthusiasm. To achieve this, prior management or clinical leadership experience would be considered advantageous.

The position frequently demands mature and considerate problem-solving.

Act as a primary contact for internal and external enquiries or feedback relating to the ICU Section and in doing so, respond to and address matters arising from this communication.

The position is full-time commencing in early/mid 2020. The successful applicant will receive a generous salary package, including support and encouragement for the pursuit of further relevant education, four weeks of vacation leave and one week of study leave per annum. Beyond this though, the opportunity exists join an established ICU team in a supportive multi-specialist clinical environment to primarily influence the further evolution of the service with the genuine and active support of hospital management.

Selection criteria:
Mandatory:

A veterinary degree registrable in Victoria.
Membership (or ideally Fellowship) of the Australian & New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists in Emergency & Critical Care, or equivalent international body.
At least 3+ years prior experience working within a 24hr emergency & critical care service.
