Your opportunity

We have an exciting opportunity for a Clinical Nurse (CN) to join our team in Roma. The Clinical Nurse Older Persons works in conjunction with Movement Disorder Service, which is based out of the Princess Alexander Hospital, and includes a neurologist and Clinical Nurse Consultant (CNC). This position practices autonomously within the multidisciplinary team to provide nursing services within a rural health service setting.

The Clinical Nurse Older Persons contributes to the provision of high-level community nursing support through care coordination, planning and support of clients with multiple co-morbidities (including, but not limited to, Parkinsons, Dementia, and other neurological disorders of the older person) and their carers across the continuum of care.

The very nature of what we do and who we are is the real opportunity. Providing health care in the bush is full of challenges, however, it remains the most rewarding of human experiences.

Roma is the largest town in the Maranoa Region servicing a catchment population of almost 14,000 and offers an array of city-like conveniences with friendly country hospitality. Roma's newly built hospital hosts an extensive list of services with state of the art facilities. A great place for families in a region traditionally rich with oil and gas and farming industries, Roma boasts an abundance of sports, recreation and schooling options. With annual events such as Easter in the Country and the Roma Races, Roma is fast becoming renowned for its enthusiasm in bringing world class Festivals and Events to the local area, showcasing their community spirit; the same community feel that makes Roma a career move you will wish you had made earlier.
