Intelligence details

Why this is worth applying to

For nurses with SCN experience, this is a good opportunity to work in a state-of-the-art facility, but the fixed-term, part-time nature may not suit those seeking permanent full-time roles. Clinicians exploring non-clinical careers should skip this as it is purely clinical.

Who should apply

Registered nurses with special care nursery experience, especially those with neonatal qualifications or working towards them, and current AHPRA registration.

CV angle

Highlight neonatal nursing experience, BCPAP, intubation, stabilisation skills, and AHPRA registration. Emphasise leadership in evidence-based care and ability to work in high dependency settings.

Skills to highlight

  • BCPAP
  • Intubation
