Job description

Local VR GPs | Extra Summer Shifts in the ACT | Up to $2,500 Per Shift | No Overnights

Make the most of your summer in Canberra

Hi, I'm Meg from ForHealth Group. Our Woden Urgent Care Centre is looking for local GPs to pick up some extra shifts over the summer holiday period, from December through January.

If you'd like to boost your income without after-hours travel, overnight shifts, or a long-term commitment, this could be a great fit.

Work that fits around your summer

Already working in general practice? Managing school holidays, family commitments, or planning some downtime? No problem. Shifts are available seven days a week on either a regular or ad hoc basis, giving you the flexibility to pick up a day here and there or a few shifts in a row.

We're particularly looking for support across evenings and weekends, when patient demand is at its highest, making it a great opportunity to supplement your existing practice work with additional sessions that fit around your schedule.

Summer is a busy time across Canberra, with increased demand on local healthcare services and emergency departments. At our Woden Urgent Care Centre, you'll help patients access timely care for acute illnesses and injuries, minor procedures, wound management, and same-day urgent assessments, helping ease pressure on the wider health system.

You’ll be part of Australia's largest urgent care network, working alongside experienced nurses and supportive clinical leaders who genuinely have your back.

Here’s what you get

• Up to $2,500 per shift
• No overnight work
• Flexible shifts, seven days a week, including over the holidays
• No travel: work close to home
• Training and opportunities to keep growing your skills

You’ll need

• FRACGP or FACRRM
• ED, VMO or Urgent Care experience
• RACGP Indigenous Cultural Awareness and Cultural Safety training (or be happy to complete it before you start)

Successful applicants must comply with ForHealth’s Child Safe Policy and Child Safe Code of Conduct, complete mandatory child safety training, and hold all relevant screening checks prior to commencement, including WWCC / Blue Card / WWVP, National Police Check and International Criminal History Check where applicable.
