Join us in shaping healthier futures. Together we can do more.
As a Clinical Nurse Educator at Coledale Hospital, you will be at the forefront of delivering and evaluating clinical education programs that enhance the skills and knowledge of ISLHDs nursing staff. Your role will involve coordinating orientation and transition support for new and casual nurses while addressing the ongoing educational needs of our experienced team.
The successful candidate will collaborate with the Nurse Unit Manager and hospital team, to ensure that clinical education aligns with the specialty’s standards. The Clinical Nurse Educator will provide direct supervision at point of care and contribute to a culture of quality, safety, and professional development, having a direct impact on the professional growth of our nursing staff.
As a part of a small, tight-knit workforce, you’ll be exposed to a range of day-to-day duties that are unique to a smaller hospital site, giving you experience in rural and remote working. No two days will be the same, and you’ll encounter and experience things that you’d never see at a larger hospital site.
