Are you seeking that role with real impact and meaning? Would you like to see the tangible outcome of your work, in your community, every day? At Northland DHB, we're driving health equality for Te Tai Tokerau, and we want you to be a part of our diverse and passionate whānau.

If you are a Registered Nurse seeking variety and challenge, our busy general ward at Dargaville Hospital has permanent opportunities to join our hardworking, rural hospital team, where nurse's ongoing education is promoted and supported.

Dargaville is a small rural community in scenic Northland, with spectacular locations like Baylys Beach and Kai Iwi Lakes within easy driving distance. Our hospital has a 12 bed inpatient unit, with nursing support provided to our Maternity and Detox Units.

Northland DHB is committed to Te Tiriti o Waitangi and holds stewardship for equitable health outcomes for Māori as Tāngata Whenua as the highest priority.

Ideally you will hold a current practicing certificate, have recent clinical experience, the ability to work within a multidisciplinary team, and excellent communication skills.

Rural nursing experience is highly desirable, though not essential. You will be required to work rostered shifts, which includes some weekend work.

If this sounds like the opportunity for you, apply today by completing the online application form, and submitting your cover letter and CV/resume.

A career with Northland DHB will see you action meaningful change in the region we love, and in your professional development – all whilst enjoying everything the stunning North has to offer. You really can enjoy the best of both.
