Registered Nurse - Maternity Services

Join our maternity team at Southland Hospital and make a real difference to the experience of new parents, their babies and whānau. You will be working in a modern, well-equipped hospital supported by a team who value the care we offer mothers, babies and whanau.

In this role you will be using your valuable nursing experience to provide the best possible care to new parents and pēpi as they set out on their new parenting journey. If you have an interest in working within a maternity setting and a passion for women's health, this is the kind of opportunity that doesn't come along every day!

The Maternity Unit at Southland Hospital births around 1200 babies every year and work very closely together with the LMC's to ensure that both mother and baby get the level and type of care that they deserve.

Ideally you will have experience working with whānau, preferably within a maternity or paediatric setting. Breast-feeding experience would be great but is not essential as training will be given. You will be provided with support on each shift as you work under the direction and delegation of a Registered Midwife.
