Returning from leave

Where possible, notify your training coordinator and medical educator at least 30 business days before you return from leave so they can make any necessary arrangements. In some cases, an appropriate placement may need to be arranged, along with a new Medicare provider number.

When returning to training after an extended period of leave, make sure you meet the Medical Board of Australia’s registration standards, particularly with regard to recency of practice.

To ensure you meet the Medical Board of Australia’s registration standards, especially for recency of practice, a return to training medical clearance may be required.
