CCHC isn’t like other places you’ve worked. We are a rapidly expanding organisation that is doing extraordinary things for those living with a disability. We have a great team, that works hard and you are rewarded and appreciated for your efforts. We want to provide a ‘life changing’ experience not only for the people we support but for all the people that work with us. We have a fast paced, dynamic, collaborative environment!

A vacancy exists for an experienced Registered Nurse (full time) to join our Head Office in Southport. The position will predominantly be involved in undertaking assessments in our clients homes. The position will have you undertaking comprehensive health assessments, wound, diabetes and continence assessments. You will then complete the associated report (so you will be a whiz with words) as these reports are used to assist clients with their funding submissions. The position will involve travel. You may be travelling to North Brisbane, Brisbane, Ipswich, Logan and the Gold Coast to undertake the assessments. We do have company ‘pool’ cars available for you to use.

The position will be involved in Education and Support for our Support Workers and Community Nurses. When we have new clients to onboard, you will be the go-to person to ensure that the appropriate care plans are in place and that staff are trained and assessed as competent for the multiple health conditions that the client may have. You will have a great way with people and the ability to adjust your approach to cater to multiple learning styles.

We are all about finding the right person who has the right attitude, values and work ethic to join our team.

Qualified Registered Nurse with preferably 5+ years experience
