About the role
Broaden your clinical range. Deepen your acute-care confidence. Build a platform for senior practice.

If hands-on acute care is your style, Parkes ED gives you the environment to become a highly capable rural emergency nurse — varied presentations, genuine acuity, a spacious modern resuscitation area, onsite medical support around the clock, and development pathways that can turn experience into career

This is an Emergency Department for nurses who want to keep sharpening their clinical judgement. You will see a broad mix of presentations and work in a regional hospital where clinical versatility counts. Rural emergency nursing asks you to think broadly, respond calmly and understand the wider clinical picture. At Parkes, you have the infrastructure and professional backing to build that capability with confidence.

Parkes Hospital opened in 2015, creating a modern regional health service with contemporary clinical spaces and equipment. The ED includes five treatment beds plus a spacious resuscitation bay, within a hospital with a 27-bed inpatient facility. The department is bright, open and visually impressive for a regional hospital of its size. When a patient deteriorates and the team needs to move quickly, the resus area gives clinicians room to assess, escalate, communicate and deliver care efficiently when every movement counts.

For metropolitan nurses considering a regional move, one detail matters enormously: Parkes has onsite medical support 24 hours a day across the ED and ward. You can embrace the breadth and autonomy of rural emergency nursing without stepping away from direct medical backup. When presentations become complex or acuity escalates, the doctor is onsite. That gives you the reassurance to make the move and the clinical environment to keep extending your practice.

Parkes Health Service also has the infrastructure to support acute care, including medical imaging with CT, ultrasound and X-ray, pathology with point-of-care testing, an onsite helipad and after-hours emergency surgical cover. The wider service includes inpatient care, maternity, chemotherapy, surgery, ambulatory care, rehabilitation and palliative care, giving the ED an important role within a well-connected regional hospital.

The professional opportunity extends beyond the next shift.

Parkes has clinical nurse educators working across the ED and inpatient unit, with education embedded into the service rather than treated as an optional extra. Nurses are supported to build the evidence and experience required for progression, including opportunities to work toward personal regrading to Clinical Nurse Specialist Grade 1.

There are also pathways into education, quality improvement, research and leadership. CNS nurses can gain relieving management experience, and nurses interested in taking on greater responsibility can develop the skills required to coordinate care, contribute to service improvement and step into more senior roles over time.

That makes Parkes particularly attractive for an experienced clinician who wants the next move to count. You are not simply changing locations. You are building clinical range, deepening acute-care confidence and creating a platform for senior practice.

The team values communication, teamwork and flexibility. Patient advocacy is central to the way the department operates: recognising what a patient needs, speaking up when it matters and making sure the person behind the presentation does not get lost in the pace of an ED shift.

The practical details are good too. Parkes Hospital offers free onsite parking and a cafe, while inpatient rooms provide a contemporary environment with their own bathrooms and televisions. These details add up to a health service designed to work well for patients, families and staff.

A regional lifestyle with room to move. Parkes is a thriving Central West town with the services and opportunities of a regional centre, while still offering the ease, affordability and connection that make a country move worthwhile.

It is home to around 12,000 people and has a diverse local economy supported by mining, government, agriculture and scientific employers. Parkes is also known nationally for the CSIRO Parkes Radio Telescope — famously known as The Dish — and the Parkes Elvis Festival, which transforms the town each January.

For families, there are schools, sport, community groups and the space to build a life outside work. For clinicians moving from a metropolitan area, Parkes offers something increasingly difficult to find: professional momentum without the long commute, expensive parking and constant pressure of city living.

With a median house price around $470,000, Parkes remains an achievable option for nurses who want more space, greater affordability and a regional lifestyle without stepping away from meaningful clinical work.

Relocation support may also be available through the NSW Government’s Welcome Experience, a free service helping eligible essential workers and their families settle into regional NSW. Local Connectors can assist with practical support such as housing, childcare, partner employment and community connections.

If you want a regional ED role that builds real acute-care capability, gives you direct onsite medical support, and opens a practical pathway into senior clinical practice, Parkes is ready for you. Challenge yourself. Make an impact. Shape the future. Join us!

Registered Nurse – Accident & Emergency (5 – 10k Incentives Offered)

Lachlan Health Service – Forbes Hospital

About the role:

Some ED roles give you a roster. Forbes gives you a pathway — emergency experience, cross-service variety, close team connection and the chance to build clinical range, responsibility and career momentum.

Forbes ED, with around 7,450 presentations annually, is part of a 35-bed regional hospital that offers genuine clinical variety. It is just the right size to gain broad experience, build confidence and have room for doors to open as your career develops.

Forbes has an energetic ED team with strong peer connection and a genuine sense of momentum. People often describe the welcoming vibe they feel when they join the team. Culture matters, because it directly affects how quickly people settle, build confidence and succeed. The ED team is social, supportive and actively engaged with each other, giving the department a more connected and personal feel than larger hospital environments.

For an experienced ED nurse, Forbes offers a different kind of professional leverage. You work closely with people across the hospital, build relationships with senior clinicians and managers, and can explore wider opportunities that align with your professional goals.

The opportunity in Forbes is tangible. The career of our current ED NUM shows what is possible. She started at Forbes as a new graduate, completed midwifery training away from Forbes, returned to the service, worked across quality and safety while still working clinically, became Nurse Manager, and now acts as Health Service Manager. That is not a vague promise of “career development”; it is a clear example of regional nursing progression from early career through to senior leadership.

Whether your next step is deepening your emergency capability, building maternity, renal or theatre exposure, exploring quality and safety, or positioning yourself for leadership, Forbes gives you a realistic platform to achieve those goals.

Forbes is also a great option for nurses looking for regional living without giving up professional momentum. You can grow your career, be part of a connected hospital team and enjoy the lifestyle, community benefits and affordability of living in the Central West.

Relocation support may also be available through the NSW Government’s Welcome Experience, a free service helping eligible essential workers and their families settle into regional NSW, including support with housing, childcare, partner employment and local connections.

If you want an ED role that gives you a pathway, not just a position, Forbes Health Service is ready to welcome you.
