Advance Your Practice – Clinical Nurse Opportunities Available
We are seeking multiple experienced and motivated Clinical Nurses to join our team and provide high-quality nursing and/or midwifery care across a variety of health service settings.

- Registered Nurse/Midwife with at least 3 years, full time equivalent, post registration experience.
- Experience in the use of computer packages e.g., Microsoft Word, Excel
- Demonstrated competence in the relevant area of nursing practice in accordance with the appropriate standards of practice.
- Experience in the leadership and direction of student nurses, enrolled nurses, and less experienced registered nurses.
