Mersey Com­mu­ni­ty hos­pi­tal is a ded­i­cat­ed elec­tive surgery cen­tre and pro­vides a mix­ture of gen­er­al hos­pi­tal ser­vices. The hos­pi­tal has close ties with the Uni­ver­si­ty of Tas­ma­nia through the Rur­al Clin­i­cal School and with TAFE Tas­ma­nia thus pro­vid­ing oppor­tu­ni­ties for com­pre­hen­sive clin­i­cal train­ing programs.

Latrobe has all the mod­ern ameni­ties and offers an afford­able lifestyle with fan­tas­tic prop­er­ties in idyl­lic loca­tions.

The bustling city of Launce­s­ton is only an hour away from Latrobe. You are close to every­thing and ​“traf­fic jam” is not a com­mon term in Tas­ma­nia. Day­light sav­ing and short trav­el dis­tances allow for a bet­ter work life balance.
