ATSI Health / Indigenous Health CPD and Training for Locum GPs

While finding Locum GPs opportunities in ATSI Health / Indigenous Health Services can tend to be the easier part of our job, we get asked regularly questions about upskilling and CPD (Continuing Professional Development), particularly around cultural awareness and safety.

Although not a training provider ourselves, Blugibbon Medical Recruitment has researched a selection of CPD Courses that could be useful when working as a Locum GP in ATSI Health.

ο»Ώ For experienced GP Emergency doctors and rural locums, Norfolk Island is one of the most remote and unusual medical placements available in Australia. This is not a typical locum role. It is a high responsibility environment that requires confidence, resilience, and a realistic understanding of what isolated medicine involves. At Blugibbon, we believe doctors deserve clear, accurate information before committing to remote or offshore locum work. The aim is always to match the right doctor to the right environment. What follows is a grounded overview of GP Emergency work on Norfolk Island, based on firsthand experience during a particularly busy Christmas and New Year period.
