About HammondCare
HammondCare is an independent Christian charity that exists to improve the quality of life for people in need. We specialise in palliative care, rehabilitation, aged and dementia care, mental health services for older people and other related health and aged care services. HammondCare seeks to embed evidence-based best practices in its services and we provide these services through home care, sub-acute hospitals and residential aged care.
Bringing these health, hospital and aged care services together, HammondCare has been able to develop innovative, flexible care models designed to serve people with complex health or aged care needs, regardless of their circumstances. HammondCare works to provide its staff with support, career development opportunities, education, responsibility and recognition, work/life balance, and satisfying roles. The Registered Nurse works within the Mission and Mission in Action of HammondCare to ensure safe, effective, quality patient care.
About The Role
The Transitional Nurse Practitioner (TNP) works within the Mission and Mission in Action of HammondCare to provide expert clinical support of the activities of the Community Palliative Care Team North. The TNP is an expert in palliative care with aged care assessment skills and knowledge. Additionally the TNP is to provide support of the educational and professional development of nursing groups, palliative care staff, patients, carers and their families.
A core function of the role is to be a conduit for residents of aged care facilities or other hospitals transitioning to end of life care and establishing links with appropriate clinical services within HammondCare. The TNP is able to extend nursing practice by facilitating timely patient review and manage patients that present with palliative/end of life care needs.
