Achieve Something Great
Campbelltown Hospital is seeking a Clinical Nurse Educator to lead clinical education and capability building across the Respiratory/Renal Ward. You’ll design, deliver and evaluate education programs in collaboration with Management, Nurse Educators and Clinical Nurse Consultants—promoting best practice and enhancing patient outcomes, including support for patients undergoing inpatient peritoneal dialysis.
You’ll provide visible clinical leadership through preceptorship and mentorship, using adult learning principles and varied teaching approaches to build confidence and competence. Your commitment to reflective practice, accountability and maintaining your own clinical expertise will foster a culture of safe, compassionate, evidence‑based care and continuous improvement.
Are You the Right Fit?
You’re an experienced clinician‑educator who communicates clearly, builds strong professional relationships and tailors education for nurses with diverse experience and learning needs. Working closely with the management team and clinical leaders, you’ll plan, implement and evaluate teaching aligned to operational and strategic priorities—coaching, supporting and developing others to deliver high‑quality patient care.
You model professional integrity and uphold nursing standards, codes of ethics and conduct, and NSW Health expectations—acting when practice is unsafe or unprofessional. Flexible and organised, you balance coordinating education with maintaining your own clinical competence, apply meticulous attention to detail across systems and processes, and implement localised approaches to strategic programs that strengthen a positive, high‑performing workplace culture.
