Walk alongside people on their recovery journey – from residential care to community support.

About the Role

At Richmind WA, we’re dedicated to helping people rebuild their lives with dignity, purpose, and hope.

We’re looking for a Registered Nurse – Mental Health to provide expert clinical care across two of our key programs:

• MH Connext – Specialised Services (2–3 days/week) – providing outreach mental health nursing support for people living in the community with complex mental health needs, including co-occurring AOD challenges.

This is a diverse role where you’ll bring your clinical expertise to different settings — helping residents stabilise and recover at Tenacious House, while empowering people in the community to live independently and confidently through MH Connext.

• Linking people with GPs, specialists, and community supports.

• Maintaining accurate, compliant clinical documentation.

This role offers a mix of autonomy and collaboration, giving you the opportunity to make a difference in both residential and community settings.
