Your opportunity

We have an exciting opportunity for a Clinical Nurse (CN) to join our team in Bollon. The Clinical Nurse practices autonomously and within a multidisciplinary team to provide nursing services within a rural / remote health service setting.

The Clinical Nurse is responsible for a portfolio with a focus on clinical care/leadership, management, education and/or research. The Clinical Nurse assumes responsibility for professional leadership on the ward, service or unit and applies critical thinking across all the domains.

The very nature of what we do and who we are is the real opportunity. Providing health care in the bush is full of challenges, however, it remains the most rewarding of human experiences.
