About the Opportunity

Part of Hunter New England Local Health District, Cessnock Community Health provides a range of community-based nursing services to individuals and families across the Cessnock region. Our team delivers patient-centred care both in the clinic and within people's homes, helping clients remain safe, independent and well within their community.

You will:

• Conduct comprehensive nursing assessments and develop care in partnership with clients.

• Reliability, professionalism and a commitment to safe, high-quality clinical practice.
• A willingness to continue developing your community nursing skills.

Immunisation qualifications and experience are desirable but not essential.

How You Will Be Supported

You won't be expected to navigate community nursing alone. You'll receive a structured orientation and ongoing clinical support to help you confidently transition into the role.

You will also have access to:

• Clinical guidance and support from the Clinical Nurse Educator (CNE).
