  • Triage health service requests from clients and make appropriate treatment plans or referrals.
  • Observe, monitor, evaluate, assess, and document client progress, symptoms, and behavioral changes, and perform a variety of health care interventions using nursing skills and medical equipment.
  • Initiate and facilitate discharge planning in collaboration with the interprofessional treatment team, identify referrals to other health professionals, and provide education and support to clients and groups using a health promotion approach.

Requirements:

  • Current practicing registration as a Registered Nurse or Registered Psychiatric Nurse with the British Columbia College of Nurses and Midwives (BCCNM).
  • Two (2) years' recent experience providing trauma-informed acute or community health nursing care/services to patients with a combination of physical, psychiatric, and/or concurrent substance abuse/misuse disorders.
  • Successful completion of Occupational First Aid II (OFA II) or OFA III techniques for positions at PHSA.
  • Working knowledge of community health nursing theory, including mental health and addictions, communicable diseases, primary care, and practice within a patient/family-centered approach.
  • Knowledge of the BC Mental Health Act, other facilities, and community resources.
  • Working knowledge of facilitation, mediation, and conflict resolution techniques, and demonstrated ability to adjust to new or unexpected events.
  • Awareness of and commitment to learning and understanding the Truth & Reconciliation Commission's 94 Calls to Action (2015), In Plain Sight Report (2020), BC's Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act (2019), and other related reports.

What We Offer:

  • Join one of BC's largest employers with province-wide programs, services, and operations, offering vast opportunities for growth, development, and recognition programs that honour the commitment and contribution of all employees.
