  • Coordinate referrals to clinical staff, allied health, community services, and external providers.

  • Support seamless participation in Restorative Care Pathways, including handover and follow-up.

  • Collaborate with scheduling and workforce teams to ensure reliable service delivery.

  • Maintain accurate and compliant documentation and care plan updates.

  • Participate in multidisciplinary discussions, case conferences, and high-risk reviews.

  • Provide culturally safe, inclusive support to CALD, ATSI, LGBTQIA+, and other diverse communities.


Requirements

Essential:
