Be yourself, because together we make a difference.
At Hunter Primary Care we recognise you, we respect who you are, and what your individuality, skills, experience and talents bring to the team. It’s your journey – grow with us.
This is a genuinely current kind of nursing role. You’ll coordinate nurse-led clinical care for HPC’s Women’s Persistent Pelvic Pain Program – assessment and referrals, leading multidisciplinary Shared Health Appointments, and helping women build the skills and confidence to self-manage a condition that’s too often misunderstood.
You’ll work closely with GPs, allied health colleagues and specialists in a small, supportive team where your clinical judgement and ideas genuinely shape how the program grows. No two days look the same – some are spent in one-on-one e assessments, others facilitating group education sessions or working through case reviews with the wider team.
Key duties:
- Coordinate and assessment and care planning for women with persistent pelvic pain
- Lead and facilitate multidisciplinary Shared Health Appointments, group education and peer support sessions
- Deliver individual and group education to build clients’ health literacy and self-management skills
- Build strong working relationships with GPs, specialists and allied health to strengthen referral pathways
- Contribute to the ongoing design, evaluation and continuous improvement of a new pilot program
Requirements/Qualifications:
- Current unrestricted AHPRA registration as a Registered Nurse
- Minimum two years’ experience as a Women’s Health Nurse or Chronic Pain Nurse
- Experience facilitating health education, group programs or shared care models
- Demonstrated trauma-informed,
culturally safe and person-centred practice
- Confident, autonomous communicator who thrives working within a multidisciplinary team
- Vaccinations as required in line with Hunter Primary Care policy.
- A National Police Check is required. People with criminal records are not automatically barred from applying – each application is considered on its merits.
This role is classified as Registered Nurse Level 2 under the Hunter Primary Care Agreement 2021 (dependent on qualifications and experience), plus superannuation. Part time, 2 days per week (0.4 FTE), fixed term for 2 years.
What can Hunter Primary Care offer you?
Flexible work arrangements, including WFH options where the role allows
Generous salary packaging up to $15,899 per annum
Paid mental health leave, and an Employee Assistance Program
Professional development leave, study leave and clinical supervision
Support to complete recognised upskilling (e.g. Vagenius Persistent Pelvic Pain course, OPEN Pain Program)
