term appointments) or be an Australian citizen, permanent resident,
or have a visa to live and work indefinitely in Australia (for
permanent appointments).
Other Conditions: WA Health engages
staff in positions of trust and responsibility. WA Health policies
require applicants to undertake a criminal records screening and
integrity checking as part of the appointment process. As well as
undertaking a criminal record screening and integrity checking, you
may also be required to undertake a working with children check (if
required for the role) and a pre-employment health assessment. We
may ask referees to comment on your integrity and past
demonstration of ethical behaviour. Please note that adverse

be considered as part of the appointment process.
Whilst this selection process will initially be used to fill the
above vacancy, it may also be used to fill other "similar"
vacancies throughout the health service. In addition to this,
should the successful applicant decline or vacate the advertised
vacancy, then the next most suitable applicant may also be selected
from this process. Both of these options remain valid for a period
of twelve (12) months from when the authorised delegate endorses
the recruitment decision.
Position Profile: In this position, the successful
applicant will be Responsible for the strategic and operational
leadership of East Care Connect across the East Metropolitan Health
Service (EMHS) including the delivery of clinical services and
programs, and the co-ordination with other providers. Additionally,

promoting and developing innovative programs in community and
virtual healthcare across EMHS and working collaboratively across
EMHS to achieve the delivery of a high quality, efficient and

About East CareConnect: Uniting in-person and virtual
care
Our new virtual hospital is delivering
hospital-quality treatment in people’s homes through traditional
medical care and technology. East CareConnect is a new arm of
our health service dedicated to harnessing technology to provide
hospital-quality care in the community
Transformative, state-of-the-art and patient-centred, East
CareConnect marks a major step forward in how we can deliver health
care and brings our virtual services together under one
banner.
For the first time, patients have this year been able to choose
‘hospital’ treatment at home under the East CareConnect
Home Hospital service for some conditions which in the
past would have required them to physically be at a hospital
site.
East CareConnect is the culmination of work which began at the
start of this decade with our ground-breaking remote monitoring
services Health in a Virtual Environment
(HIVE) and Community Health in a Virtual
Environment (Co-HIVE).
Virtual services are an important part of our ongoing evolution.
They are giving patients more choice by enabling care and
monitoring from the comfort of their homes, and in turn freeing up
physical hospital beds for those who need them the most.
East CareConnect services are helping us lay the foundation for
a more sustainable, accessible and equitable healthcare
future.
