Are you an experienced Remote Area Nurse looking for your next contract over Christmas and into the New Year? Ready to make a real difference in some of the most rewarding communities in the country?

Talent Quarter is proud to be partnering with remote primary health clinics to find Remote Area Nurses for contracts across the Barkly Region and Central Australia in the Northern Territory, starting ASAP and running through to late January.

This is a fantastic opportunity for Remote Area Nurses who enjoy autonomy, variety and community-based care, and are looking for a short stint over Christmas or a longer block of work with everything organised for them.

The Clinics

Contracts are available across these communities:

- Barkly Region: Ali Curung, Canteen Creek, Elliott, Epenarra, Lake Nash

- Central Australia: Finke, Harts Range, Hermannsburg, Kings Canyon, Laramba, Mt Liebig, Nyirripi, Papunya, Willowra, Yuendumu

Each clinic delivers primary health care and emergency care to its local community, often with a small team of nurses, Aboriginal Health Practitioners and visiting GPs and allied health. You’ll be supported by the wider health service and by me throughout your contract, from credentialling to your last day.

The Role

Contracts run for 4 to 8 weeks, with on-call as part of the roster. Extensions are usually available if you'd like to stay longer.

You’ll work closely with the clinic team, local Aboriginal Health Practitioners and visiting medical staff.

child and women’s health care

- Medication management under remote clinical protocols, such as the CARPA Standard Treatment Manual
