Step into a well-supported regional ED where your impact matters
Looking to secure consistent, high-acuity ED shifts in a collaborative and well-resourced hospital? At Ballarat Base Hospital, you’ll find the perfect balance: the pace and variety of a major regional emergency department, without the intensity of metro medicine.
Prescript Recruitment is proud to be a preferred partner of Ballarat Base, which is part of the Grampians Health network. Whether you’re seeking a week here or regular work across the winter, we’ll help you find the perfect fit, with full support and concierge-level service every step of the way.

Prescript Recruitment – Perfectly Placed For Doctors

“Prescript are medical recruitment specialists.”
At Prescript we’re known for helping solve the regional doctor shortage in Australia.
Every day we’re focused on two clear outcomes - Helping hospitals find doctors that create departments and clinics that run better, have more capacity and less stress. And placing Doctors in jobs that leave them feeling highly valued, rewarded and, most importantly, enjoying what they do.
We believe that when we get these two crucial things right, it has a huge impact on the regional doctor shortage and the healthcare of communities across Australia.
