and prevent unnecessary hospital admissions.

We are in the incredibly privileged position of caring

We are looking for a nurse who is dynamic, innovative, passionate and committed

with experience of case management and multidisciplinary work.

We are looking for leaders who possess excellent

communication skills and the ability to motivate others. We want individuals

who are resilient and able to support others through change to maintain the

delivery of high quality, compassionate, proactive and safe care.

Due to the nature of the role, it is essential that

applicants can travel independently across the locality and have access to a
