Modbury Hospital
Modbury is part of the Central Northern Adelaide Health Service and has a reputation for providing well-rounded training in a community hospital that has a very supportive teaching environment. Comments from Interns have consistently highlighted the positive experience of being treated as a valuable member of the clinical team.
Our intern training program is particularly suited to those wishing to pursue a career in General Practice. It also provides a good general base for those looking to enter other training programs. We provide experience in a broad range of medical and surgical conditions, which are representative of the spectrum of illness in the community. Registrars or Senior Medical Practitioners supervise Interns in all specialities at all times.
The roster comprises terms in:
- General Medicine
- General Surgery
- Emergency Medicine (including 30% Paediatric attendances)
- Nights
- Relieving
- General Practice
The Hospital has a very high success rate with Interns gaining entry to General Practice Training. We also have a strong commitment to training doctors for Rural General Practice with Registrar positions for advanced training in Surgery, Anaesthetics and Obstetrics and Gynaecology.
There is a regular intern tutorial program and a wide range of other postgraduate education activities scheduled each week.
A Director of Clinical Studies, GP Coordinator and Medical Education Officer supervise the training of Junior Medical Officers and are readily available to address your individual needs. The Director of Medical Services is very supportive and happy to discuss any issues with you throughout the year.
There is a Junior Medical Officer Forum and RMO Society.
