Experiences available include: general adult inpatient and community psychiatry, consultation-liaison, psycho-oncology, psychogeriatrics, dual diagnosis, perinatal psychiatry and psychiatry of trauma. For further information please refer to the SVMH Psychiatry Training Program attachment.
There is an extensive academic and educational program available at St Vincent's Mental Health. St Vincent's has a particular commitment to providing a comprehensive training program which includes quality experience in psychotherapy (supported by our Head of Psychotherapy Training), access to research opportunities, and an active examination preparation program. Cover registrars are supported by individual supervision provided by RANZCP accredited supervisors.
