Empowered to shine
Join our team of 2000+ people making a positive difference to over 15,000 older Victorians through aged care services. As a respected not-for-profit organisation, we're transforming the experience of ageing through collaboration, new ideas and investment in people and services.
Our people take pride in where they work and their ability to make a real difference. Our Operational Leaders feel heard and are recognised for their contributions, supported by progressive and empathetic Senior Leaders in a culture that values respect, authenticity and connection. There's plenty of opportunities to broaden skill sets and advance careers, while making a positive difference in the lives of older Victorians.
The Role
We have a newly created position available for a Clinical Practice Partner to uplift clinical capability, mentor nurses and care teams, and drive safe, high‑quality practice across residential aged care homes. This is a key role within the organisation aimed at providing leadership and strategic impact in advancing clinical practice and care. This is a hands‑on, resident‑facing role - not a desk‑based quality or education position. You will work alongside teams on the floor, shaping confident clinical decision‑making, strengthening practice, and partnering with leaders to improve outcomes for older people.
* Coach and mentor clinical staff on the floor to strengthen capability, lift confidence, and embed evidence‑based practice
* Assess clinical competency and support targeted development to ensure safe, high‑quality care
* Lead clinical quality activities, including audits, documentation checks, and continuous improvement initiatives
* Identify and escalate clinical risks early, contributing to incident reviews, root‑cause analysis, and rapid improvement actions
* Collaborate with clinical leaders and educators to drive consistent clinical standards, uplift workforce capability, and support organisational practice improvements
This position will either support our residential homes in the South-East region of Victoria, or the North-West region on Victoria, depending on the location of the successful applicant. You can view all of our residential homes here.
