The CNS will work alongside the clinical team with a focus on creating positive outcomes using a strong Te Ao Maaori lens, whilst delivering excellent care.

**Mōu | About you**- A ‘you can do it’ attitude is vital in this fast paced and high activity environment.-
- A ‘curiosity’ to enquire what will make a difference for an individual tāngata whai ora and their whānau, and a willingness to lead change to truly make a difference, are all essential skills you hold.-
- You will identify as Maaori and have a good understanding of Te Ao Maaori and your own identity and whakapapa connections.-
- You will need to be able to work in an environment where you will need to have difficult conversations, advocating what is right for Maaori in what is a generally western approach to care.-
- You should have 4-5 years clinical experience.-
- We are hoping that you will be one of a number of catalysts that will support this ward and the wider adult acute facility to become a more cultural led and clinical underpinned service.If you are Maaori and believe you have the right skills, a Te Ao Maaori perspective and knowledge, energy, enthusiasm and professional qualities to lead changes in a team going forward then we would like to hear from you
