Hours Per Week:38

Requisition ID:REQ689029

Location: Wilson Memorial Community Hospital, Murrurundi

Applications Close: Sunday 20th September 2026

About Us

Wilson Memorial Hospital is located in the picturesque Upper Hunter town of Murrurundi, offering the perfect blend of professional challenge and country lifestyle. Murrurundi Hospital provides 24-hour emergency care, inpatient services, palliative care, aged care, rehabilitation and outpatient services. You’ll join a diverse and collaborative team of experienced EENs and RNs, supported by a visiting onsite CNE and NUM. Additional education and mentoring are available through district CNEs and HSM/NUMs, ensuring you are well supported in your professional growth.

About the Role

Working across the Acute Ward and Emergency Department, you’ll care for a diverse patient mix — from post-operative and general medical patients through to palliative care and emergency presentations. One shift could see you caring for a patient recovering from knee surgery; the next, you could be supporting a complex retrieval in the Emergency Department. You’ll be challenged to think critically, make sound clinical decisions and adapt quickly to changing priorities.

Essential (or willingness to work towards):

• Triage
• IV cannulation
• Venepuncture
• BLS/ALS accreditation

You’ll receive comprehensive support including onsite orientation, access to visiting CNEs, district educators and paid education days across HNE LHD facilities. Strong partnerships with our neighbouring site in Scott Memorial Hospital provide opportunities to periodically work in Scone to further develop and maintain your clinical skills. Structured 30-day and 60-day check-ins with your manager, along with annual performance reviews, ensure you feel supported and valued in your role.

About You

You’re a passionate, hands-on Registered Nurse who thrives in a dynamic environment and enjoys the variety that comes with working across both acute and emergency care.

You are:

• Current registration as a Registered Nurse with AHPRA.
• A genuine willingness to learn, develop and expand your clinical skills.
• Confidence in sharing your knowledge and supporting colleagues.
• Strong leadership skills, with the ability to step up, coordinate and guide the team when required.
• Sound clinical judgement and a commitment to delivering safe, high-quality, patient-centred care.
• The ability to adapt to changing priorities and work confidently both independently and as part of a team.

Most importantly, you’ll be enthusiastic about rural nursing and excited by the variety, autonomy and professional growth that comes with working in a dynamic small hospital where every shift brings a new opportunity to make a difference.

What we can offer you:

✅ Be rewarded with up to$20,000 in the first 12 months PLUS up to $10,000 each year thereafter in fortnightly payments under the Rural Health Workforce Ince ntive Scheme.*
