About the opportunity
Our Hospital in the Home (HITH) service is expanding and we are now seeking an experienced, dynamic and enthusiastic Associate Nurse Unit Manager (ANUM) to join us in leading our Neonatal and Paediatric HITH stream.
Our HITH Service provides family centred care for infants, children, youth and their families at home, in the clinic and in the community, who require ongoing specialised and often complex medical and nursing care that would otherwise require hospitalisation.
The Associate Nurse Unit Manager (ANUM), in collaboration with the Nurse Unit Manager (NUM), is responsible for the provision of high quality and efficient clinical service delivery and the effective mentoring and leadership of the Nursing Team. In the absence of the NUM, the ANUM will manage the professional and operational resources of the unit.
What you'll bring
You're resilient, compassionate and have a whole lot of heart. Most importantly, you are committed to delivering exceptional patient-centred care.
To thrive in this role, you will have:
* Extensive (5+yrs) recent experience in an acute hospital, with relevant experience in community setting, across a broad range of paediatric and neonatal services.
* Demonstrated experience in nurse leadership, including coaching and supporting staff, and an ability to lead projects to improve service delivery
* Demonstrated highly effective clinical skills in specialty area, time management and interpersonal skills including problem solving and negotiation skills
You will also be required to provide evidence of, or in the process of obtaining:
* A current Police Record Check and Working with Children Check.
* Proof of current influenza vaccination and other vaccination status consistent with public health orders.
