Strengthening Mental Health Support Across Aurora Hospitals

Aurora Healthcare offers Psychiatrists the opportunity to locum directly with its hospitals, supported by a dedicated in-house coordinator who manages placements, travel, accommodation and onboarding. By removing agency intermediaries, more investment goes to clinicians while enabling a more flexible, transparent and personalised experience. This direct model also fosters long-term relationships, with many locums returning across multiple sites or transitioning into permanent roles. Aurora continues to value agency partnerships but is committed to building strong, direct connections that benefit both clinicians and patient care.

Why Accessing Help Matters More Than Ever

Psychiatry careers don’t need to be “public vs private”—a balanced, flexible approach across both sectors is key to improving access to care, reducing burnout, and building a more sustainable workforce.
