About Us
The Alfred Health Renal Service provides clinical services that incorporate an extensive consultative and management program for inpatient, ambulatory and community based renal care. These renal services are provided across the acute inpatient ward at The Alfred, ambulatory and outpatient settings and three dialysis units across the Alfred Health campuses.  
Services are provided across the spectrum of acute and chronic kidney disease, including dialysis (including for acute kidney injury) and renal transplant. Dialysis is provided through in-centre, home and satellite dialysis. Renal transplantation includes both deceased and live donor as well as multi-organ transplants. There are strong links with Peninsula Health where a hub and spoke model supports the satellite haemodialysis services at Frankston, Hastings and Rosebud Hospitals.
About The Role
Nurse Educators (NE) are leaders within nursing and education and role model professional nursing practice. As members of the Renal Service and Nursing Education team, they model the values of Nursing Services by exemplifying and promoting excellence in practice and fostering an environment of inquiry and continuous learning. As a recognised resource for staff, the NE assists clinical nurses to achieve optimal outcomes in patient care delivery.
Nurse Educators are responsible for identifying, anticipating and responding to the developmental needs of the nurse and the clinical environment, achieving this through collaborating with local area and organisational stakeholders to establish, implement and evaluate plans that further equip the nurse to respond to the increasingly complex needs of patients.
This role will work in the Alfred Renal Service, with focus to support the non-inpatient nurses within satellite dialysis, Peritoneal Dialysis, Home Haemotherapy and ambulatory services. This role will support the implementation of a Transition Support Program (TSP) renal pathway for nurses and Post Graduate Certificate in Renal Nursing Program. This role will work closely with the Nursing Education department and in partnership with key university/TAFE stakeholders to deliver this program.
