Area Clinical Nurse Specialist

Summary

Organ and Tissue Donation (12 FTE across NSW) will be employed in major metropolitan and regional hospitals that have the capacity for organ and tissue donation. The nature of these positions - including outreach and after hours work - will reflect the individual hospital's: population demographics and catchment; geographical location; capacity for organ and tissue donation activity; and hospital outreach activities.

The Clinical Nurse Specialists will be responsible for raising awareness of, and providing educational services on organ and tissue donation for all local hospital and outreach medical, nursing and allied health staff who come into contact with the donation process. They will also facilitate, under the direction of the local Hospital-based Medical Director, organ and tissue donation by working with hospital teams to identify and convert potential organ donors into actual donors.
