1 week ago
Are you prepared to embark on an invigorating role within a dynamic, multi-disciplinary team? As a Clinical Nurse Specialist, you'll have the extraordinary chance to deliver specialised Mental Health nursing services that will enhance the well-being of those entrusted to our care.
From initial triage and assessment to implementing evidence-based treatments, you'll assume a pivotal role in amalgamating primary health and tertiary mental health services.
Moreover, as an integral member of our Mental Health team, you'll immerse yourself in a supportive environment with opportunities for professional development, clinical supervision, and a comprehensive approach to rehabilitation-oriented healthcare within the prison setting.
In your role as a CNS, you'll take the lead in supporting the professional growth of fellow mental health professionals within the Intervention and Support Practice Team.
Together, you'll provide vital mental health services to those in our care who are most vulnerable.
This opportunity is ideal for a clinical professional passionate about fostering culturally safe practices and partnerships.
Our teams are committed to demonstrating expert clinical practice, with a strong emphasis on Humanising and Healing.
We deeply value the human dignity and inherent mana of all individuals and their whānau under our care.
Join us on this exhilarating journey and make a lasting impact.
We're seeking applications from suitably qualified candidates, preferably with at least 5 years of Mental Health nursing experience, who resonate strongly with our kaupapa and can effectively showcase their alignment through a written application, demonstrating how they meet our essential requirements.
As the successful candidate, you will hold the title of Registered Nurse with a current Nursing Council of NZ Annual Practising Certificate.
Your role requires a foundation in strong cultural competence, encompassing an understanding of the Te Tiriti o Waitangi and its application, along with cultural knowledge and experience in working with and for Māori, whānau, and iwi.
Your professional background should include specialist Mental Health nursing experience in primary/community, secondary, or tertiary settings.
It is imperative that you can demonstrate relevant experience, especially in dealing with individuals facing acute and complex mental health and/or addiction issues.
You will need to exhibit a proven understanding of the professional, ethical, and legislative requirements associated with providing mental health service care and treatment within a prison context.
While possessing a post-graduate qualification in Mental Health or working towards one is desirable, we also encourage applications from those in the process of obtaining this qualification.
Experience, qualifications, and registration in New Zealand are highly desirable.
Preference will be given to candidates who have proven experience working within the New Zealand healthcare system, hold relevant New Zealand qualifications, and are currently registered with the appropriate regulatory bodies.
This will ensure a smoother integration into our workforce and a deeper understanding of the local context and standards of care.
The full salary range is $114,025 - $121,444.
Appointment and remuneration will reflect clinical competency, skills, and experience relevant to the role.
Ara Poutama Aotearoa (Department of Corrections) Health Services lead the delivery of patient-focused primary health care services to tangata within corrections facilities across Aotearoa.
Hōkai Rangi, our overarching strategic direction, places the focus on health at the heart of our business.
Building our frameworks from a Mātauranga Māori basis is our focus to drive and support equity for Māori, which in turn will contribute to achieving our outcomes of reducing reoffending.
Applications Close 11pm Sunday, 13 April 2025.
Please apply and describe your motivation for joining the department, highlighting relevant skills and experience.
Please include a tailored CV or Cover Letter if you have one.
Alignment to our Kaupapa is critical to our success - we ask that you provide examples that reflect and demonstrate our organisation values.
