My Heart Cardiology (www.myheartcardiology.com.au) is seeking an experienced Nurse Practitioner (NP) or Registered Nurse (RN) to join our team, based principally at our Richmond practice with weekly outreach visits to partner GP clinics in the Macedon Ranges and Melbourne's northern/western suburbs to help deliver our cardiovascular disease Prevention Quality Improvement Program locally.

About the Program

- Support development of a final outcomes report, including recommendations for program sustainability
- Assist cardiologists in delivering educational sessions to local GP practices on ASCVD and lipid management

Plus, general cardiology nursing duties, including:

- Pre- and post-procedure patient preparation and care (e.g. angiography, device implants, stress testing)
- Chaperoning and assisting cardiologists during consultations and procedures when needed
- ECG recording and basic interpretation, Holter monitor fitting, and other diagnostic support when needed
- Patient education on medications, lifestyle modification, and chronic disease self-management
- Triage of patient phone queries and coordination of specialist referrals
- Wound care and device (e.g. pacemaker) follow-up checks where required
- Maintaining clinical records and supporting practice accreditation/quality standards

About You

- Current AHPRA registration as a Nurse Practitioner or Registered Nurse
- Experience in cardiology, chronic disease management, or a related clinical setting preferred
- Strong understanding of cardiovascular risk management and lipid‑lowering therapies (highly regarded)
- Excellent communication skills, comfortable working with patients, GPs, and program stakeholders
- Confident with data collection, reporting, and quality improvement processes
- A team-oriented, patient-centred approach to care

What We Offer

- Full‑time position primarily based in Richmond, VIC
- The opportunity to lead and shape a high‑profile cardiovascular quality improvement program
- Supportive, specialist cardiology team environment
