An exciting opportunity exists to join the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) Department at Wollongong Hospital.

The Intensive Care Trainee will work under the supervision of Specialist Intensive Care Physicians, assisting to manage, diagnose and treat patients with severe medical, surgical, obstetric and paediatric illness.
