Occupational Health Nurse (Mine Clinic)

Bring your SANC registration and your ward experience to a provincial district hospital in Germiston that needs a steady pair of hands. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

You'll report in Germiston. Relocation is not covered for this one. Hours are mostly Monday to Friday, with the odd Saturday in busy months.

• Report adverse events and near misses on the incident system the same day
• Do full patient assessments and update nursing care plans every shift
• Prepare patients for theatre and receive them back from recovery
• Take part in ward rounds with doctors and record the new orders

• Valid BLS certificate; ACLS or PALS for ICU and emergency posts
• Clean criminal record
• Current SANC registration as a Professional Nurse, with this year's annual fees paid
• Solid knowledge of medication safety and the Nursing Act scope of practice
• Calm under pressure when a patient's condition turns quickly

• Dispensing licence (Section 22A(15)) for clinic posts
• Experience with electronic patient records or bedside charting systems
• Post-basic qualification in critical care, theatre or advanced midwifery

• Medical aid and pension fund contributions after probation
• Study support for post-basic specialities
