During this rotation, graduates will provide care for a diverse range of adult clinical presentations including care of critically unwell and deteriorating patients, acute medical and surgical conditions, mental health, alcohol and other drugs, palliative care, and correctional health. Graduates will be supported by senior nursing staff and the multidisciplinary team to provide care and compassion to socially vulnerable and marginalised people in the community, and promote incorporation of social justice and advocacy into evidence-based clinical practice to ensure that all patients receive the best possible care.

Graduates will rotate through the different areas of ED, including the acute cubicles, short stay units, MHAOD Hub and Fast Tract to complete learning objectives and consolidate emergency nursing knowledge and clinical skills.

Duties include:

Deliver holistic nursing care addressing the physical, emotional, and mental health needs of consumers/patients across Mental Health and Emergency settings.
