Achieve Something Great

The Connected Care Registered Nurse plays a critical role in delivering safe, high-quality virtual care through Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) and Hospital in the Home (HITH), supporting patients to remain safely at home and avoid unnecessary hospital presentations.

This role is central to day-to-day clinical operations, including patient onboarding, remote monitoring, assessment and escalation of clinical risk, and coordination with medical and multidisciplinary teams. It directly supports timely intervention, continuity of care, adherence to clinical protocols, and responsive management of patients whose conditions require ongoing surveillance in the community.As the service continues to expand, this position will also support the pilot implementation of an enhanced 24-hour model of care, providing capacity to respond to after-hours clinical escalations for patients receiving RPM and HITH services. The model is being tested to ensure patients experiencing clinical deterioration or requiring additional support outside standard business hours can be safely assessed, managed, and coordinated within the community setting, reducing avoidable Emergency Department presentations and hospital admissions.

By enabling early discharge, reducing avoidable hospital utilisation, supporting patient flow, and facilitating timely escalation and intervention, this position contributes to improved patient outcomes, system efficiency, and patient experience.
