- Maintaining accurate clinical documentation and confidently navigating electronic medical records and practice management software.

What We're Looking For

Personality is just as important to us as clinical experience!

We're looking for someone who is:

- Warm, bubbly and genuinely friendly – someone who brings positive energy to the clinic and makes patients feel immediately at ease.

- An outstanding communicator – confident, articulate and able to connect with people from all walks of life.

- A natural people person – someone who enjoys conversation, builds rapport effortlessly and delivers exceptional patient care.

- Confident and proactive – comfortable taking initiative, anticipating what needs to be done and working efficiently alongside a busy specialist.

- Tech-savvy and adaptable – highly competent with computers, quick to learn current software and comfortable working across multiple digital platforms.

- Organised and efficient – able to multitask, prioritise and maintain attention to detail in a busy clinical environment.

- A genuine team player – reliable, flexible and willing to pitch in wherever needed.

- Compassionate and professional – someone who understands that patients may be anxious, in pain or facing surgery and knows how to put them at ease.

Essential Requirements

- Current AHPRA registration as a Registered Nurse.

- Availabilities to work Tuesdays - this is an essential requirement of the role.

- Excellent interpersonal and communication skills.

- Sound clinical judgement and a commitment to safe, high-quality patient care.

- Ability to work both independently within your scope of practice and collaboratively with the treating surgeon and wider clinical team.

Previous orthopaedic, surgical, fracture clinic or outpatient experience would be highly regarded, however not essential.

We are more than happy to support the right nurse in developing their orthopaedic knowledge and skills. A positive attitude, willingness to learn and exceptional people skills are what matter most to us.
