As a Registered Nurse in the Renal Training Program, you'll play an important role in supporting people receiving specialised kidney care. Through hands-on learning, clinical development and strong team support, you'll build expertise in dialysis nursing while helping patients achieve the best possible health outcomes.

Every day, you'll contribute by:

  • Delivering safe, person-centred care that supports positive patient experiences and clinical outcomes.
  • Partnering with nurses, allied health professionals and medical teams to coordinate care and respond to changing patient needs.
  • Applying evidence-based practice and sound clinical judgement to deliver high-quality care in a specialised environment.
  • Building your renal nursing capability through structured learning, reflective practice and continuous improvement activities.

Let's talk about you!

You're someone who combines clinical capability with genuine compassion. You communicate with respect, embrace learning opportunities and take pride in delivering safe, high-quality care. You bring integrity to every interaction, have the courage to grow your practice and are motivated by the opportunity to support people through important health journeys. You'll feel proud knowing your contribution helps patients build confidence, wellbeing and quality of life while developing your own specialist nursing career.

Here's what will help you thrive in this role:

  • Current registration as a Registered Nurse with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia.
  • Strong clinical assessment, critical thinking and decision-making skills.
  • Ability to work collaboratively within multidisciplinary teams and build positive professional relationships.
  • Commitment to professional development, patient safety and evidence-based practice.

You'll stand out from the crowd if you have recent experience in an acute medical or surgical setting and/or a strong interest in developing expertise in renal nursing and dialysis care.

Above all, you'll bring Compassion, Integrity, Dignity, Innovation and Courage to every patient interaction and every step of your professional growth.
