We are expanding our team and looking for an enthusiastic and motivated Practice Nurse with a particular interest in Chronic Disease Management to join our friendly and supportive team.
Located in a beautiful semi-rural setting between Stirling and Perth, we serve the population of Dollar and the surrounding area (5500 patients). We have a strong patient-focus and pride ourselves in providing an excellent person-centred service for our population, with an emphasis on continuity of care. The local community is supportive of the practice, and we have correspondingly excellent patient experience results.

All are supported by an experienced admin team, deputy practice manager and practice manager.
We are a training practice, and all clinical staff have protected time to attend a daily 20-minute huddle where anyone can ask for advice, share learning, and provide support over a coffee.
