Achieve Something Great
A temporary full‑time opportunity is available for an experienced Clinical Nurse Consultant to join the Infection Prevention Unit. In this role, you will provide expert clinical leadership aligned with the NSW Health CNC domains, supporting the ongoing development of safe, effective and contemporary clinical practice.
You will offer specialist advice to patients, carers and health professionals, lead the development and evaluation of care plans for complex cases, and apply research to guide infection prevention strategies.
