Registered Nurse - Private Specialist Pain Practice

Registered Nurse - Specialist Pain Practice

Monday-Friday | 8am-4pm or 9am-5pm | Full-Time / Part-Time Considered

Love being a nurse, but ready for more balance and a break from rotating hospital shifts?

Imagine moving into a Monday-to-Friday private practice role where you can still use your clinical skills, work closely with specialists, educate and support patients, and enjoy more predictable hours.

At Hunter Pain Specialists, your role will extend well beyond traditional clinic nursing. You'll be involved across the patient journey - from assisting with procedures and providing patient education through to coordinating hospital admissions and follow-up care, alongside administration, quality improvement and involvement in clinical research.

It's a role that brings together the clinical, educational and coordination sides of nursing - with plenty of variety along the way.

Why you'll enjoy this role

Monday to Friday hours - enjoy the consistency of 8am-4pm or 9am-5pm

Leave the rotating roster behind - without giving up hands-on clinical nursing

A genuinely varied role - clinical care, procedures, patient education, coordination, administration and research

Build relationships with your patients - educate, support and follow them throughout their treatment journey

Keep using your clinical skills - assist specialists with injections and procedures, wound care, lead removals, TENS fitting and advanced pain therapies

Broaden your nursing experience - coordinate hospital admissions, theatre requirements, follow-up care and communication with other healthcare providers





Continue learning - broaden your knowledge of pain management and gain exposure to therapies including spinal cord stimulation, intrathecal pumps and TENS

Stay professionally engaged - contribute to quality improvement, clinical guidelines, education and relevant research

Work closely with specialists - become an integral part of a multidisciplinary specialist team

Flexibility for the right person - full-time preferred, although part-time Registered Nurses will also be considered

What could your day look like?

This is where the variety of the role really comes through.

One part of your day may see you working directly with patients - providing education about their treatment, answering questions, supporting them through advanced pain therapies or following up after a procedure.

You may then be assisting a specialist with an injection procedure, undertaking a wound review or dressing, fitting a TENS machine, assisting with an intrathecal pump refill or coordinating the programming and follow-up of a spinal cord stimulator patient.

Who would thrive in this role?

You don't necessarily need to have worked in pain management before.

Pain-management experience would certainly be welcomed, but we're equally interested in an experienced RN who brings strong transferable clinical skills,



enjoys learning and is interested in broadening their experience within pain management.

If you come from a hospital, theatre, procedural or surgical nursing background, this could be a wonderful chance to take your experience into a different working environment while still enjoying genuine clinical involvement.

You’ll ideally bring:

Current AHPRA registration - as a Registered Nurse

Relevant nursing experience - hospital, theatre, procedural or surgical nursing experience

Clinical confidence - working with doctors and assisting with procedures

A genuine enjoyment of patient education and support - and the ability to explain information clearly and reassuringly

Strong communication and relationship-building skills - with patients, doctors and the wider healthcare team

Good administration, organisation and follow-through - with confidence coordinating multiple aspects of a patient's care

A warm, calm and reassuring manner - particularly when supporting patients managing complex or ongoing pain

Curiosity and an interest in continuing to learn - and confidence working independently as well as part of a collaborative team

Could this be the change you've been looking for?

If you still love nursing but are ready for more predictable hours, greater variety and a different way of using your experience, we'd genuinely love to hear from you.

Bring the clinical skills you've already developed. You'll have the opportunity to use them in a different environment, broaden your experience and become an significant part of the care patients receive at Hunter Pain Specialists.

If this sounds like the opportunity you’ve been looking for,
