Registered Nurse | Medically Fragile Child

Waiheke Island, NZ Permanent

The team includes Registered Nurses, Support Workers, Allied Health professionals and specialist clinicians due to this child facing a number of clinical challenges including dystonia, pain, regular respiratory infections that require at times hospitalisation and medical management.

His severe dystonic quadriplegic cerebral palsy means we seek a specific, sustainable, competent, dedicated
workforce to manage the challenges he faces daily. These challenges include, but not inclusively, inadvertent self-injurious behaviour, abnormal sensory feedback, complex pain syndrome and unsafe swallowing
requiring gastronomy feeding and airway management.

Ideally you will have some paediatric experience, though exceptional relevant nursing skills in any area and a caring committed attitude are equally recognised.  PEG experience is necessary, as is a full and current driver’s licence.  Flexibility is required as there may be a need for some domestic travel.
