About the role
As a rural Multipurpose Service (MPS) Registered Nurse you will work in a supported environment to provide essential healthcare services and support to residents in rural communities throughout Western NSW. The role involves working with the multidisciplinary team both face to face and virtually to deliver a range of health care services including aged care, acute care, primary health and community health.
You will be responsible for assisting with the provision of high quality care and ensuring the wellbeing of patients and residents within the MPS facility. Registered Nurses with triage, ED and in charge experience with ALS qualifications are preferred, however educational opportunities to learn ED and triage are available in this role, so a willingness to learn is essential. The successful candidate must be able to work independently and as part of a team.
You will work with the multidisciplinary team effectively as well as have confidence with virtual care providers. You must be able to utilise the available resources and work within a small team to maximise care.
