• Be registered or eligible for registration as a Nurse/Midwife with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia, and hold or be eligible to hold a current practising certificate.
• Demonstrate competence in the relevant area of nursing practice in accordance with appropriate standards of practice.
• Bring effective communication, problem-solving, conflict resolution and negotiation skills.
• Work effectively within a multidisciplinary team while managing and prioritising your workload.
• Demonstrate a strong commitment to consumer/client and family-centred care, with the flexibility and initiative to respond effectively within a healthcare environment.

About Nursing at Bordertown Memorial Hospital

As part of the nursing team at Bordertown Memorial Hospital, you’ll provide direct person-centred care while working closely with nursing colleagues, other health professionals and external organisations to meet the needs of patients, clients and families.

The role provides opportunities to build clinical capability, participate in quality improvement and evidence-based practice, provide health education, and support students, graduates and less experienced staff.
