Vascular Health Group is seeking an experienced Registered Nurse to join our established specialist vascular and venous practice in Hawthorn East.
This role would particularly suit a nurse with experience in theatre, recovery, emergency, ICU, day surgery or procedural nursing who enjoys clinical work and patient contact but is looking for more predictable hours and a high-quality specialist setting.
You will work closely with an experienced vascular surgeon, GP phlebologist and multidisciplinary clinical team, assisting with minimally invasive venous procedures and supporting patients throughout their treatment.
Our patients are ambulant and procedures are performed in our purpose-designed rooms under local/tumescent anaesthesia, with no general anaesthesia or sedation.
Key responsibilities
Assisting with in-room vascular and venous procedures
Preparation and administration of tumescent local anaesthetic within scope and under medical direction
Assisting with ultrasound-guided procedures
Patient preparation, monitoring and post-procedure care
Maintaining excellent infection-control and procedural standards
Procedure-room setup and turnover
Stock, equipment and consumables management
Patient education and communication
Supporting efficient clinical workflow across the practice
More than a traditional nursing role
Vascular Health Group is entering an exciting period of development, with expansion of our medical and sonography team and growing integration withWeWell, our preventative health and lifestyle medicine initiative.
We are also developing opportunities forclinical research and patient-outcomes projects, particularly in vascular health, metabolic health, exercise, continuous glucose monitoring, lifestyle interventions and preventative medicine.
For a nurse with an interest in research, quality improvement or preventative health,
there may be opportunities over time to participate in areas such as:
Clinical research and patient-outcomes projects
Patient recruitment and study coordination
Data collection and follow-up
Quality-improvement initiatives
Vascular and metabolic health programs
Development of patient education and preventative-health initiatives
Research experience is not required.
Equally, involvement in these areas would not be essential for someone primarily interested in the clinical nursing role.

Tuesday-Thursday, approximately 8:00am-4:00pm
No acute ward workload
No general anaesthesia or sedated patients
Interesting hands-on procedural work
Small, experienced multidisciplinary team
Beautiful purpose-designed consulting and procedure rooms
On-site parking and excellent public transport
Established and stable patient base
Genuine opportunity to develop the role according to your interests
Potential involvement in research, preventative health and lifestyle medicine
Quality of care valued over volume
About you
AHPRA-registered as a Registered Nurse
