This position is based on a rotating roster across morning, afternoon and night shifts, including weekends and public holidays as required. The successful applicant will work in a compassionate team-focused environment that values respect, dignity and quality of life with a supportive management structure and welcoming workplace culture providing safe, high quality nursing care including medication administration, wound care and clinical assessments.

Rural nursing is nurse-led care, so nurses are a key part of the decision-making process for client care and have more influence on healthcare delivery. There is a comprehensive orientation program and access to ongoing clinical education with regular support from the Nurse Manager.
