**About the Hospital**:
North Canberra Hospital (formerly Calvary Public Hospital Bruce) and Clare Holland House are now run and operated by Canberra Health Services (CHS)

This is a significant milestone as the ACT Government moves towards delivering a new billion-dollar hospital on Canberra’s Northside.

The current North Canberra Hospital is a level 4 hospital that provides a range of acute and sub-acute services including community based care to the residents of the northside of Canberra and Southern NSW. North Canberra Hospital (NCH) is a 270 public hospital located in Canberra’s expanding northside. North Canberra Hospital operates a 24 hour Emergency Department. Inpatient services include general medicine, surgery, maternity, mental health and critical care.

Other service modalities include day surgery, specialist outpatient clinics, Hospital in the Home and the Geriatric Rapid Acute Care Evaluation service that reaches into aged care facilities across the ACT.

The new Northside Hospital will be built on the existing Calvary Hospital campus in Bruce. It will be a modern, state-of-the-art hospital for patients, visitors and its workforce and will provide more beds and increased services. Until then, it's business as usual at the NCH, and we'll keep providing high-quality care to our patients and community.

**About the role**:

- As a Pastoral Care Practitioner you will work as part of the multidisciplinary care team to address the spiritual and emotional wellbeing of patients, their loved ones and staff at North Canberra Hospital (NCH). At NCH we understand that healthcare works best when we create a person-centred partnership that delivers holistic care for the body, mind and spirit. Pastoral care seeks to address the spiritual domain of health, with particular response to the unique human vulnerabilities associated with healthcare including fear, loneliness, pain, grief, and joy. Standard hours of work are 8am-3:51pm and this role may include an overnight on-call service, weekend and public holiday work.

- Assist people to access their own spiritual resources, find meaning in their particular experience, and promote spiritual and emotional wellbeing as central to the planning and provision of health care.
- Provide pastoral care in a variety of clinical settings including critical care, medical emergencies, palliative care, death and bereavement, either in response to referrals from other health care workers or via ward-based visitation. Prioritise caseload, manage competing priorities and refer people with needs outside scope of practice to other spiritual, health care or community practitioners.
- Work as part of the Pastoral Care team, including supporting and managing volunteers, students and faith representatives.
- Support, develop, and facilitate private and public spiritual practices, including rituals such as prayer, memorial services and viewings of deceased bodies.
- Review and develop your pastoral identity and practice, particularly through self-reflection, self-care and via external clinical supervision.
- Undertake other duties appropriate to this level of classification which contribute to the operation of the organisation.

**About you**:
**Requirements/Qualifications**:

- Hold a tertiary qualification (or progression towards a qualification) in pastoral care, pastoral counselling, theology, chaplaincy, clinical pastoral education, psychology, social sciences (or another related area to the delivery of pastoral care) from an accredited education provider. Experience in clinical pastoral care is highly desirable.
- Have an understanding of how the National Safety and Quality Health Service (NSQHS) indicators align with this role.
