• Lead and contribute to a collaborative team environment to ensure high-quality, person-centred care is delivered to residents and their representatives.
• Mentor, support, and guide staff, promoting excellence in clinical care, lifestyle services, and team capability development.
• Ensure duty of care is upheld by adhering to organisational policies, professional codes of conduct, ethical standards, and legislative requirements.
• Monitor, evaluate, and report on clinical practices, ensuring alignment with best practice standards, governance frameworks, and compliance requirements.
• Participate in quality systems including audits, reviews, data analysis, and continuous improvement initiatives to enhance care outcomes.
• Oversee care planning processes in collaboration with residents, families, and clinical teams, ensuring responsive and individualised care delivery.
• Contribute to staff development through training, performance reviews, mentoring, and support of education and capability-building initiatives.
• Maintain effective working relationships with internal teams, external providers, and community stakeholders while remaining responsive to operational needs, including after-hours availability when required.
