About the Role

We are seeking an experienced and visionary Allied Health professional to step into the role of Allied Health Coordinator within the CALHN Integrated Care Geriatric Services team.

Your leadership will be pivotal in shaping innovative, patient-centred models of care across CALHN’s integrated services.

Exceptional communication and clinical reasoning skills, with the ability to manage complex caseloads independently and as part of a multidisciplinary team.

Demonstrated leadership in fostering collaboration across diverse teams, navigating change, and driving quality improvement initiatives in healthcare settings.

Extensive experience working with adults across acute, sub-acute, and community services, including managing patients with neurological, cognitive, orthopaedic, and psychosocial complexities.

Strong organisational and problem-solving skills, with a flexible, culturally competent, and evidence-based approach to patient care and service delivery.
