We are seeking dedicated nurses for 4-12 week contracts in regional, coastal and remote locations across Australia. In these rewarding roles, you'll work in regional settings, providing critical care to communities in need whilst exporing fantastic locations!

As a Locum Mental Health Nurse with cmr, you'll experience a range of meaningful roles across Australia's mental health care landscape. From community outreach to acute interventions, you'll provide critical support and care in:
