Registered Nurse

Description:

The Mater Young Adult Health Centre Brisbane (MYAHCB) has an exciting opportunity for an experienced and enthusiastic Registered Nurse to join the team in a permanent part time (32 hours per week) capacity based at our South Brisbane campus.

MYAHCB offers a specialised healthcare environment for patients predominately aged 16-25 and their families. Featuring innovative service models focused on the primary condition as well as the associated impacts on adolescent social, emotional, and educational development, the service will help patients and their families through transition from paediatric healthcare services into care during the young adult period and subsequent transition to adult services. At all times, the focus will be on providing a complete care package to meet the emotional and physical healthcare needs of the patient.

The comprehensive service will demonstrate excellence in the management of all adolescent and young adult patients where there is an identified need and an evidenced clinical benefit. In addition to managing patients with chronic and complex conditions such as Diabetes, Cystic Fibrosis, complex urology conditions, and Inflammatory Bowel Disease, the Mater Young Adult Health Service will deliver care across a broad spectrum of specialties including medical and surgical conditions and will at times flex up to include older adults to meet organisational needs.
