Healthcare Jobs and Medical Careers in Dubbo and Central NSW

Dubbo is the headquarters of the Western NSW Local Health District which stretches from Lithgow in the east to Broken Hill in the west. The Western NSW Primary Health Network (WNSW PHN) caters to health professionals in this region. Besides the diverse health care delivered, this region has the largest rural mental health service in Australia. This is because in spite of being sparsely populated, some of the most vulnerable population with a lower socio-economic status, shorter life expectancy and poorer health inhabit this region. The health sector focuses on special care to mitigate risk factors that contribute to poorer health including substance abuse and obesity, that this group requires, along with health issues that are pertinent to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders, who constitute 11% of the regional population.

Dubbo is where the Newell, Mitchell and Golden Highways meet. From Sydney, the drive northwest to Dubbo is about five hours, while it is also well connected by trains and flights. This city is home to the famous Taronga Western Plains Zoo, is rich with gorgeous gardens and conservation areas perfect for picnics.

The housing affordability and general ‘liveability’ is an advantage for attracting both families and businesses. Dubbo’s median house price is about $300,000, while the median weekly rent is $200.
