Nepean Blue Mountains Local Health District (NBMLHD) is an exceptional environment to advance your career while enhancing your skills and expertise. As a recognised leader in the healthcare industry, we deliver a comprehensive range of public health services across the Nepean, Blue Mountains, and Lithgow Regions.
The Primary Care and Community Health Unit consists of 9 centres that provide a range of services for children, young people and their families, adults, older people and their carers. Our services range from health promotion, prevention and early detection through to assessment, treatment and continuing care. Our staff work in partnership with schools, GPs, hospitals, non-government agencies and other organisations to provide care across our centres, in people’s homes, other community venues as well as virtual care (telehealth).
Help shape healthier futures for children and families within your community. As a Child and Family Health Nurse, you will work with children aged 0-5 years and their families to promote optimal health, growth and development through the delivery of compassionate, evidence-based care.
Working within a multidisciplinary team, you will build trusted relationships with families using a strengths-based family partnership approach, supporting them through the crucial early years of a child's life. Through health promotion, early support and a commitment to family-centred care, you will play an important role in helping children and families achieve positive health and wellbeing outcomes.
As part of a service guided by the principles of Primary Health Care, you will contribute to a supportive and collaborative environment dedicated to improving outcomes for children, families and the wider community.
