About the Role

We are looking for an enthusiastic and experienced Senior Registered Nurse with extensive clinical expertise, or a special interest in Stroke care to join our AT&R team on a permanent part-time basis.

The role includes the teaching of health professionals and facilitation of both formal and informal learning opportunities.

  • Current registration and annual practising certificate
  • Leadership, teamwork, and collaboration skills - integral to continuity of service delivery
  • Good time management and the ability to manage work in a planned and coordinated manner.
  • Extensive clinical experience preferably at a senior nurse level
  • Competency with te ao Māori, tikanga, and te reo Māori or a commitment to starting your journey and taking ownership of your learning and growth
  • Experience in projects/initiatives which give effect to Te Tiriti principles and frameworks, and the application of Mātauranga Māori and Kaupapa Māori approaches, particularly as they apply in healthcare settings.
  • Have participated in service and care planning within multidisciplinary teams of professionals, focused on effective delivery of Geriatric and stroke care
