The WNSWLHD Staff Health Unit is responsible for managing compliance requirements for all students undertaking placements from Charles Sturt University, TAFE NSW, and the University of Sydney (Orange and Dubbo campuses). This includes the receipt, assessment, approval, and uploading of health documentation into VaxLink and ClinConnect databases for every student.
In addition, all students on placement during the winter months are required to provide evidence of influenza vaccination, which must also be uploaded into the relevant compliance systems prior to placement commencement.
The successful candidate will work closely with the Staff Health Nurse and university students to reach compliance as per the current NSW Health OASV policy, to ensure they are able to attend their workplace placements in a timely manner.
