Royal Childrens Hospital Centre for Adolescent Health

For the 2016 clinical year there are two Adolescent Medicine Fellow training positions on offer at the Centre for Adolescent
Health, Royal Childrens Hospital, Melbourne.
These are clinically focused training positions which satisfy the requirements for developmental and psychosocial training and
are a fascinating opportunity, with a mix of clinical service, project and liaison responsibilities. They are ideal both for trainees
wanting to pursue a career in adolescent medicine and for those pursuing a general or subspecialty path but wanting some
extra expertise with adolescents.
The positions are essentially the same and the clinical case load is mixed and varied with complex medical and psychosocial presentations. Trainees function as junior consultants on the ward service roster (supported by the 2nd on-call
consultant) and provide outpatient and inpatient service, including work with the eating disorders team. They also engage in
work with high risk youth in specialist settings, specifically:
Young Peoples Health Service providing primary health care for homeless young people via Melbourne City
Missions Frontyard Youth Services
Victorian Aboriginal Health Service which will be a mix of clinical service, policy writing and liaison
For the past three clinical years Fellows have divided the high risk responsibilities as negotiated with their medical supervisor
and it is anticipated that this arrangement will continue for 2016. These positions are designed for post-exam trainees and
will satisfy RACP D&P training, elective general paediatric (or other specialty) time and some CCH training requirements.
Multidisciplinary team is a feature for both positions and supervision is excellent. Annual leave will be at a mutually
convenient time.
