**Nau mai, haere mai ki Te Whatu Ora - Capital, Coast & Hutt Valley District**

**Location**: Wellington and Hutt based

**Service**: Fracture Liaison Service

**Contract**: Permanent part-time 0.6 Clinical Nurse specialist

**Salary**: NZNO Meca Grade 4 or $101,086-$111,695 pro-rata

**Kōrero mō te tūranga - About the role**

Fracture Liaison services (FLS) are designed to reduce the incidence of future injury by offering appropriate assessment, education and interventions to people over the age of 50 years who experience low impact fragility fractures. Interventions are tailored to individuals and may include medications as well as information about osteoporosis and lifestyle measures that can assist bone health and reduce risk of future fractures.

We have commenced implementation of a Fracture Liaison Service in the Hutt Valley/Te Awakairangi and are now looking forward to extending the team across the Wellington, Porirua and Kapiti areas.

This means we are now recruiting two additional Coordinators to the team. This position would be well suited to a non-prescribing Clinical Nurse specialist who has a special interest in bone health and a strong commitment to the health and well-being of Older People. You will be assisting with identification of people for follow-up, completing bone health and falls risk assessments, offering preventative education and, where indicated, referring to our prescribing clinicians for initiation of treatment. We will also maintain close working relationships with Primary Health and Community based falls prevention services.

An interest in quality improvement and innovation will be important as we are a new service and will need your support to develop the team.

**Mō tō mātou rōpū - About our team**

The Fracture Liaison team is small and friendly with a Pharmacist/FLS Coordinator, two Administrators and a.2 fte Geriatrician Clinical Leader already employed. Together with this.6 Coordinator role we will soon be advertising for a.5 Nurse Practitioner. We interface with Emergency Departments, Orthopaedics, Geriatrics, Endocrinology, Rheumatology and Radiology within the hospital, also taking fragility fracture referrals from Primary Health. The Coordinator in this role will receive a solid orientation and support from existing staff whilst the team as a whole can access day to day collegiality from the large District-wide Community Older Adults service.

**Moū - About you**

You will be a CNS practising at an advanced level with in-depth knowledge and experience of bone health. You will help establish and embed a best practice FLS, achieving International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF) accreditation.

As this is a Coordinator role we are looking for someone with great interpersonal and networking skills, who will be a supportive team player. The primary location for this role will depend upon applicants, however there may be the need to work flexible hours from time to time and the role may include some travel within the District.
