About the Role

As a Registered Nurse you will be responsible for providing quality clinical care to patients. You will develop and maintain patient care plans, liaise with the multi-disciplinary healthcare team to provide co-ordinated patient management, provide assessment of patients and co-ordinate outpatient and inpatient treatments. 

This is a bench role which means you may not be provided a full roster and instead, you'll be paid to be at home (on the 'bench') until you are scheduled to attend a shift during the week to make up the hours and of course provide much needed support for unplanned and planned leave or surges due to deployments or ADF Assist programs. If you're not scheduled for full time shifts in a week, you still get paid full time - even if you only work part time hours. The role will cover all ADF Health Centres in Northern NSW.

To be successful in this role, you will have:

• The highest levels of personal integrity and ethical behaviour.
• Current unconditional and unrestricted registration as a Registered Nurse with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA).
• Minimum of 12 months Post Graduate experience within the last 5 years in an acute care, primary health care, or military setting (or part-time equivalent).
• Recent participation in Continuous Professional Development (CPD) activities in accordance with AHPRA.
• Current First Aid (HLTAID011) and Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (HLTAID009) certification.

About You

You are a passionate and dedicated Registered Nurse who is committed to providing the highest quality healthcare. With an ability to put patients at ease, your warmth and care is one of your greatest attributes. You are able to work autonomously, and you thrive in a busy environment where you can make a difference to those in need. You are a respectful and professional person who demonstrates exceptional moral values in everything you do. You are passionate about providing health services and working as part of a multi-disciplinary team to support delivery of the highest standard of care to patients.
