The awards are given each year to acknowledge the skill, commitment and growth of doctors-in-training over the last 12 months.

The winners are:

• Intern of the Year – Dr Chris Alexander 
• Resident Medical Officer of the Year – Dr Victoria Murton 
• Registrar of the Year – Dr Clare Rayner 

The awards are nominated and voted for by medical, nursing and allied health professionals  from across the hospital.

Voting is based on a doctor’s all-round performance, including communication skills, clinical judgement and skills, and relationships with staff, patients and relatives.

This month, new interns have started across Tasmania and doctors-in-training with more than one year experience have moved onto their next rotations to continue their training journey.
