Achieve Something Great
Campbelltown Emergency Department is seeking a Patient Experience Officer – Permanent Part‑Time who is passionate about improving the experience of patients and families during some of the most critical moments in their healthcare journey. In this fast‑paced ED, you will play a central role in bridging communication between consumers and clinical teams, ensuring care remains respectful, compassionate, and person‑centred. You will provide clear communication, wayfinding support, and timely updates, working side‑by‑side with nursing, medical, and support staff to enhance patient flow and ensure families feel informed and supported throughout their visit.
In this role, you will contribute directly to service improvement and quality initiatives, assisting with feedback, concerns, and compliments, and helping develop strategies that strengthen consumer engagement. Your impact will be meaningful every day, particularly during high‑pressure moments, as you help create a welcoming, culturally safe, and inclusive environment for all who enter the Emergency Department. This is your opportunity to make a real difference in a team committed to delivering safe, high‑quality care to a diverse and rapidly growing community.
Are You the Right Fit?
You bring empathy, professionalism, and a genuine commitment to patient‑centred care, with the ability to practice active listening and communicate clearly in busy or emotionally heightened situations. You maintain strong attention to detail when documenting feedback and escalating concerns, and you work collaboratively within a multidisciplinary team to ensure patients and carers consistently receive timely, accurate, and supportive communication.
You demonstrate resilience and sound judgement in a fast‑paced Emergency Department and thrive in roles where compassion, service, and teamwork drive positive outcomes. Experience in healthcare, customer service, or consumer engagement is desirable, and you’re motivated to support patients and families through proactive engagement and exceptional service. If you are ready to make a lasting difference in one of the region’s busiest EDs, we’d love to hear from you.
