We are proud of the terrific teamwork that exists within Western Health and the care that we provide to our patients, which is underpinned by the Western Health values: Compassion, Accountability, Respect, Excellence and Safety.
Make it about pride
Western Health serves a diverse community that brings with it a variety of clinical presentations enabling complex care delivery from NICU to Geriatrics. Western Health takes pride in its emerging excellence in research, including its role in the Victorian Comprehensive Cancer Centre (VCCC).
Western Health has been successful in funding state of the art commission of the New Footscray Hospital, new Sunshine Emergency Department, Joan Kirner Women’s and Children’s and the Western Centre for Health Research and Education (WCHRE).
Make it meaningful
Western Health nurses relish in the variety of care required at the hospital and their real impact their care can have on the community. This enables them to grow their skills, experience and confidence exponentially. Passion, support and collaboration are at the heart of how our nurses provide person-centred care for our community. Our culture fosters multi-disciplinary collaboration and a supportive environment.
Make it about the future
We offer rewarding formal training and courses that are aimed at developing our skills, knowledge and abilities. We offer flexible career pathways from bedside care expertise, management and education, through to speciality and project roles such as Electronic Medical Record or Sunshine Emergency Department re-development.
We are a Registered Training Organisation with fantastic education partnerships, scholarship and nursing and midwifery research programs. Discovery programs run through the year across multiple disciplines and often lead to Post-Grad program opportunities.
Registered Nurse Grade 2 and Enrolled Nurse positions are recruited by our Central Nursing and Midwifery Workforce Unit (NMWU) team, with the current vacancies being found here.
