About the Role

Our Primary Care Liaison Service is a small team of experienced clinicians covering the MHAIDS region. We work in both primary and secondary health settings to support tangata whaiora receiving the right care, at the right time, in the right environment.

The role of the Primary Care Liaison Nurse is to work across primary and secondary health settings to ensure clients are able to access the treatment most appropriate to their needs. The GP Liaison Nurse does not provide a care management role to clients, rather acts in a consultation role for primary care via GPs, Health Centres and Community Mental Health teams, as well as providing assessment and brief intervention when required.

We are seeking resourceful, enthusiastic Registered Nurses with mental health experience who are passionate about participating in people's mental health and addiction recovery journeys. You will be able to work autonomously as well as contribute to the multidisciplinary team. Creative, innovative thinking and problem solving skills are essential for this role.

You will have extensive experience in mental health settings, including in the community, and hold a full NZ driver's license. Excellent communication and interpersonal skills are also essential for building relationships with a variety of other professionals.
