RVTS Registrars work in rural and remote locations or in Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Services and are matched with a supervisor for the duration of their training.
The supervisor should:
- Be unconditionally registered with AHPRA
- Be a Fellow of ACRRM or RACGP
- Have experience in rural and remote general practice for registrars in the Remote Stream or experience in Aboriginal Health for the AMS Stream
- Have past or present experience in supervising/mentoring
- Have a current ALS certificate
- Have appropriate medical indemnity cover, and
- Not have a conflict of interest (e.g., personal interest in registrar’s training location).
It is preferable, but not mandatory, that the supervisor practises in the same region and state as the registrar.
RVTS supervisors cannot have more than two registrars to ensure they are available to undertake all registrar training activities.
