The Role | Mō tēnei tūranga mahi

We are looking for a Registered Nurse to join our Auckland peer-led acute service that offers an alternative to hospital admission for those people experiencing acute mental distress.

Tupu Ake, our peer-led service in South Auckland, was one of the first mental health and wellbeing peer support services of its kind in New Zealand.

Our beautiful 1912 villa in Papatoetoe has always been a place of healing and rest. It was initially a homestead, then a convent, and a rest home, before being renovated for Pathways in 2008, becoming Tupu Ake. The peaceful, park-like garden provides a quiet setting away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

You will need to have a scope of practice to work in mental health and utilise your clinical nursing skills to support our guests in their recovery.

AM shift: 7am - 3:30pm

PM shift: 3pm - 11:30pm*

6 core values of Peer Support: Mutuality, Experiential knowledge, Self-determination, Participation, Equity, Hope and well-being.

You'll also have:

Must have a New Zealand Registered Health Professional with a current practising certificate

Comprehensive and/or psychiatric scope, and the ability to work within the field of mental health.

Strong communication skills, both written and oral and excellent organisational skills

Hold a full clean New Zealand driver's licence
