What r/ausjdocs says about Child and Adolescent Health Service

21 substantive mentions from 20 authors, 2022–2026, hand-read by theme. Community view, not policy; stance splits only at n ≥ 30; a claim under three authors is a single report, not a verdict. Retrieved 12 Sept 2026.

Feeder jobs and streams: 7 authors; 9 tagged sentences; no tally under 30

No claim reached the three-author bar.

This is why in WA, service reg anaesthesia roles are around, but the actual number of rotational trainees is limited by the number of Perth Childrens Hospital anaesthetic registrar positions that are available (about 20 spots each year).

Fair few QLD hospitals have a big cardio research culture eg GCUH, PCH compared to others, making them somewhat more competitive for the non-research inclined
