Health New Zealand | Te Whatu Ora is firmly grounded in the principles of Te Tiriti o Waitangi and is committed to building a health system that serves all New Zealanders.
About the Role
The AT&R service provides assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation for the persons with complex needs. The majority of patients in AT&R (Southland) are older people with complex needs and those who have multiple health, functional and/or social problems, however we have also increased our medical/surgical beds, so this ward presents an opportunity for nurses to expand their nursing experience across a wider range of patient care.
This is an opportunity for you to experience the close-knit nursing, allied health and medical team environment in Assessment, Treatment and Rehabilitation (AT&R). If you are looking to broaden your horizons or wanting to take a step into a specialist field, this could be your opportunity to do so.
