This is a career defining role for an ambitious Registered Nurse who wants to develop Emergency skills to the top of their scope.
Dubbo Hospital Emergency and Regional Trauma Service is the emergency hub for a large part of Western NSW, where First Nations people represent 20% of the population and where the outdoor lifestyle, delayed care presentations and distance from tertiary services, leads to high-acuity and high-variety emergency work.
If you bring a ‘can-do’ attitude and a passion for learning, you’ll thrive in our Transition to Specialist Practice in Emergency Nursing Program, and be well-supported by senior staff and educators as you work toward accreditation, building advanced skills with rewarding clinical challenges.
At Dubbo ED, you’ll join a truly inclusive, multidisciplinary, and multicultural team that values every individual. We rely on one another, celebrate our differences, and share in both the challenges and joys of emergency care. We also offer flexible shift options to balance work and wellbeing.
Dubbo provides a lifestyle that works - a vibrant city of 55,000 people, median house price of $581,000, a 10 min commute, highly networked transport options to capital cities and a vast range of leisure activities on offer. Find out more about Dubbo here.
Our hospital community is know for welcoming newcomers - professional and personally with the camaraderie and support extending well beyond the workplaces, so in Dubbo, you’ll never feel alone.
This role is for an ambitious, adaptable, and resourceful clinician - someone committed to health equity, driven to develop professionally, and ready to contribute meaningfully in a team where your voice matters. If this is you we encourage you to come out and experience what we have to offer and apply now!
A relocation incentive of $10,000 is available for this position for those who plan to stay a minimum of 18 months. A $5000 annual retention allowance is paid fortnightly, after 12 months service.
If you want to challenge yourself, make a difference and shape the future of rural health. Join Dubbo ED.
About Western NSW Local Health District
We work with local clinicians and our community to provide the best possible health care to the people of the Western NSW Local Health District.
The Western NSW Local Health District (WNSWLHD) is one of the largest Local Health Districts in New South Wales covering an area of 246,676 square kilometres, similar to the size of Britain.
We deliver innovative health services to an estimated resident population of approximately 276,000 people. WNSWLHD is diverse in the health care it delivers boasting the largest rural mental health service in Australia, three major rural referral hospitals at Orange, Dubbo and Bathurst, 50 community health centres which provide access to a wide range of multidisciplinary primary, and community health services, 38 inpatient facilities including 25 Multipurpose Services (MPSs) and District Health Services at Mudgee, Cowra, Parkes and Forbes.
There are more than 30,786 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people living in the Local Health District, representing 11.1% of the total population. This is significantly higher than the NSW average of 2.1%. The smaller more remote communities of Brewarrina, Walgett, Coonamble and Bourke have the highest proportion of Aboriginal people. People of a non-English speaking background, make up 2.8% of the population, compared to 15% for NSW.
Our region has some of the most vulnerable population in NSW and even Australia who generally have a lower socio-economic status, shorter life expectancy, and poorer health than other people living in NSW. More people also have at least one of the risk factors that contribute to poorer health including smoking, harmful use of alcohol, obesity and lack of physical activity.
Mental health is an important service that is provided by WNSWLHD both at a local and state-wide level. We are committed to improving our mental health services to ensure contemporary models of care are provided closer to the client's place of residence.
