Transfer your skills
As an urban-based health professional, you already have the skills to work anywhere.
Taking those skills to a remote or very remote NT Aboriginal community will bring challenges and experiences you may never have had in an urban clinic.
The RAHC and highly experienced team in the health clinic will support you to have a positive, impactful experience.
Working as a remote General Practitioner or Registered Nurse
Remote Educators (RE) are experienced remote area nurses, skilled in supporting health professionals who haven’t worked remote before. Your RE will:
- give you one-on-one clinical support to Registered Nurses (RN) and General Practitioners (GP) on placement
- create an individual support plan based on your experience and conversations with the health service.
If you’re an RN who is new to working remote, an RE will be available to you 24/7.
If you’re a GP, you can request an RE to support you to transition your knowledge and skills to working remote.
What you can do to prepare
We work with many remote and very remote NT Aboriginal communities – each with different health access needs.
Whichever community you’re taking your placement in, there are some things you should know and can do.
