About the Unit

The Care in the Right Setting (CaRs) program aims to improve access to health care and reduce the demand on hospitals by improving flow and promoting the right care in the right time for the right outcome. The CaRS Team includes Hospital in The Home (HiTH), Geriatric Evaluation Management / Rehabilitation – Hospital in The Home (GEM / R-HiTH), and Residential Aged Care Facility Support Service (RaSS) and Geriatric Emergency Department Intervention (GEDI) care providers. Patients receive quality care that is tailored to their individual health care needs.

The GEM / R-HiTH service provides care to admitted inpatients in their homes or suitable accommodation. This sub-acute service, led by a geriatrician and rehabilitation physician, facilitates multidisciplinary community-based care, enabling a seamless transition home. It supports a range of patients, including those with orthopaedic, stroke, respiratory, and chronic conditions, through short-term rehabilitation aimed at maximising functionality in their own environment. This care is delivered by medical staff, along with nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, social workers, dietitians and speech pathologists.

The RaSS model provides care in partnership with residential aged care facilities and GPs to provide care in nursing homes.

The tropical climate is ideal for outdoor living with beautiful beaches and a spectacular natural environment nearby. Families are well serviced by a choice of high quality schools and a wide range of sporting clubs with excellent facilities.

The hospital has recently enjoyed a major $408 Million overhaul and expansion doubling the number of beds to over 300 and increasing the size by 40,000m2 including a new Emergency Department. This is now a state of the art fully modern hospital and one of Australia's largest regional healthcare facilities.

You will work within a team environment, contributing to the provision of high standard clinical services to patients of the Health Service.
