An exciting opportunity currently exists for an enthusiastic senior nurse to join our** Adolescent Inpatient Unit.** This is a full time ongoing position.

The Adolescent Inpatient Unit at Austin Health is a small inpatient unit that works closely with young people and their carers to achieve positive outcomes in all areas of functioning. We have 11 beds, and are based at the Austin Hospital in Heidelberg. Adolescents who have turned 13 (but are not yet 18 years of age) are admitted for mental health assessment and treatment when their presentation presents high levels of risk, or when a more specialised service is required for assessment and treatment. These young people may be experiencing significant acute and complex emotional, behavioural and/or social difficulties and have usually had some outpatient treatment. The team is also supported by Austin School teaching staff who work to keep young people connected to their home schools or to help them reconnect to appropriate education pathways.

Feedback from our families:

- “Thank you for the time you so generously gave to understand our teenager’s condition and circumstances surrounding this. Thank you for the life-saving support and care you all have provided. Thank you”_
- “To the team
- your caring, non-judgemental approach is exactly what is needed. Thank you for catching our teenager in their time of need”_
