About the role
Our single goal is providing a service that builds 'healthier rural people and thriving communities'. In this role, you’ll grow long-term relationships with patients, simplifying referral pathways and access to care to help them manage their health within their own communities. This is a rewarding role where you can be involved in people’s lives, not just their illnesses.
As an important part of the multidisciplinary care team, you’ll deliver nursing care through a flexible service delivery model, both in community and ambulatory settings. You will lead, direct, and supervise other care roles in the team, including nurses, students, and Aboriginal Health Workers (AHW) to support the delivery of quality care.
The successful applicant will work closely with patients, their GPs, the Molong HealthOne multidisciplinary team and the Primary and Community Health Manager. You will have the willingness & ability to work 3 days per week 8-16:30 with the infrequent potential of occasional weekend work and hold a current licence to drive in NSW with the ability to drive for work purposes.
A typical day involves providing holistic based care and assessment for patients in the community. For our nursing staff, this typically involves the provision of holistic assessment, wound management, IV antibiotics, catheter care, central venous access care and working within and referring to a multidisciplinary team.
Previous experience working in the Community Health setting and skills in advanced physical assessment, cannulation and wound care would be advantageous.
You will join a small, close-knit team of nursing and Allied Health staff covering Molong, Yeoval, Cudal, Cumnock and Manildra communities. Nursing staff also work in the Ambulatory Care unit at the Molong MPS. You will be well supported, and your dedication will be seen and appreciated. You will be an integral member of the community and you’ll see not only the results of your care, but the appreciation of the community of the role you play in their health.
What’s more, you’ll have the excellent career opportunities only a large organisation such as Western NSW Local Health District can provide.
Challenge yourself. Make an impact. Shape the future. Join us at Western NSW Local Health District.
