About you
Our ideal candidate will be someone who can carry out the following key accountabilities in accordance with the Metro North Health's values:

- Accurately and concisely record all patient interaction as well as workload measurement statistics, to facilitate the analysis of service trends.
- Provide clinical practice supervision for less experienced practitioners, commensurate with the level of experience, as well as direction to assistants, support staff and work experience students, under guidance of senior clinical practitioners.
