GP Locum | Unique Mental Health Centre Role | $1,650–$2,150/day | Rare Opportunity | Ipswich QLD

It’s not quite correctional. It’s not your everyday GP job. And it’s not advertised often.

At Prescript, we’re known for unearthing rare roles that blend impact with strong financial reward—and this is one of those placements.

We’re looking for a GP (VR or Non-VR) to step into a part-time role that supports a patient community often overlooked—people with complex mental health needs who can’t safely live in the broader community.

You’ll be delivering primary healthcare in a secure, multidisciplinary facility—not a prison, but a place of care, rehabilitation, and respect. This role suits a doctor who’s curious, capable, and committed to work that matters.

The Position

Located within The Park Centre for Mental Health, just outside Ipswich (QLD), you’ll work alongside a small and experienced allied health team to provide general health services to 125 patients living on site.

This is a well-resourced, structured service environment—your medical expertise is valued and supported.

  • Location: West Moreton Health Service, QLD

  • Setting: Secure mental health facility (non-correctional)

  • Schedule: Tuesdays and Thursdays (preferred)

  • Hours: 8:00am – 4:00pm

  • Team Includes: Physio, dietitian, podiatry, dentistry, optometry, specialist nurse visits

  • No after-hours or on-call required

Dates Available

29 April – 5 June 2025
(Short block, high impact. Ideal for doctors seeking variety or a change of pace.)

Benefits Provided

Daily Rate:

  • Non-VR GP: $1,650/day

  • VR GP: $2,150/day

Prescript Concierge Support:

  • All credentialing, and onboarding managed

  • Dedicated support from your Prescript partner

  • Prompt payroll with zero paperwork hassles

Impact Beyond the Pay:

  • Offer meaningful care

  • Join a team committed to health equity and patient dignity

  • Take on fascinating clinical work with no after-hours stress

What We Require From You

To step into this rewarding role, you'll need:

  • General or Specialist Registration with AHPRA

  • Full working rights in Australia

  • Requirement to complete ieMR before starting (we will help you with this)

Your Next Step

If you're looking for something different—something that feels meaningful—this is it. This role doesn’t appear often.
