The Department
Alfred Psychiatry is a recognised industry leader in acute and community psychiatric care, with a State-wide Psychiatric ICU. The Nursing Workforce Department comprises The Workforce Unit and Staffing Allocations. We provide supplementary staff to Alfred, Caulfield and Sandringham sites when required due to increased service demand or shortfall in staffing requirements. The service provides advanced and just-in-time bookings (short-notice shift replacement). The team recruits and hires both casual and permanent staff for Bank and Pool for the purpose of advanced and short-notice bookings, short-term contracts and permanent placement of Bank and Pool staff. We develop strategies to maximise retention of the Bank and Pool Staff. We develop and monitor the orientation and ongoing educational programs of the Bank and Pool staff. We work in close collaboration with numerous departments and the staff that are provided by this service, includes General, Theatre Nurses, Psychiatric and Enrolled nurses, Clerical staff and Patient Attendants. The staff can be provided via various contractual arrangements including permanent part-time (Pool) and casual (Bank).
The Position Summary
We are seeking motivated psychiatric registered nurses who are looking for the opportunity to work across various of our bed-based services, including our acute psychiatric unit based at the Alfred site. Flexibility and availability for shifts across the different settings will be highly valued.
Nurses will be employed within the Nurse Pool of Alfred Health, and will work either in the Acute In-Patient Psychiatric Unit (based at The Alfred Hospital) and the Residential Rehabilitation (Community Care Unit located in St Kilda) or may from time to time provide psychiatric nurse specialising to patients admitted to the medical/surgical wards of Alfred Health. This is a direct patient care role involving risk assessment, mental state assessment, and care planning, as well as consultation, liaison and negotiation with patients, carers, family members, and other professionals. The single most important goal of Alfred Psychiatry is to create an environment that facilitates clinical recovery, supports individual recovery efforts and strives to minimise service system barriers to the recovery process.
