About Us
Nepean Blue Mountains Local Health District (NBMLHD) is an exceptional environment to advance your career while enhancing your skills and expertise. As a recognised leader in the healthcare industry, we deliver a comprehensive range of public health services across the Nepean, Blue Mountains, and Lithgow Regions.
The Primary Care and Community Health Unit consists of 9 centres that provide a range of services for children, young people and their families, adults, older people and their carers. Our services range from health promotion, prevention and early detection through to assessment, treatment and continuing care. Our staff work in partnership with schools, GPs, hospitals, non-government agencies and other organisations to provide care across our centres, in people's homes, other community venues as well as virtual care (telehealth).
Are you a passionate and motivated Physiotherapist looking to make a meaningful difference in the lives of older people within your community? We have an exciting opportunity to join our dedicated and supportive team, delivering high-quality physiotherapy services across a range of community-based programs, including the Transitional Aged Care Program (TACP), Nepean Post Acute Community Care (NPACC), and the Commonwealth Home Support Program (CHSP).
In this rewarding role, you will work with clients transitioning through various stages of care, supporting them to regain independence, improve mobility, and enhance their overall quality of life. Your work will take place across community settings, including clients' homes and Community Health Centres, providing a diverse and engaging caseload. As part of a collaborative multidisciplinary team, you will have the opportunity to apply your clinical expertise, creativity, and compassion to deliver person-centred, evidence-based care that has a genuine impact.
We are seeking a qualified Physiotherapist with a strong interest in aged care, slow stream rehabilitation, and community health. You will bring excellent clinical reasoning skills, a commitment to delivering high-quality care, and the ability to build positive therapeutic relationships with clients, families, and colleagues. A proactive approach, strong communication skills, and a passion for helping people achieve their goals will see you thrive in this role.
This position offers an excellent opportunity to further develop your skills within a well-established and respected service. You'll be supported by an experienced team that values collaboration, professional growth, and innovation, while enjoying the satisfaction of helping clients remain active, independent, and connected to their community.
If you're ready to bring your expertise, enthusiasm, and commitment to a role that truly matters, we'd love to hear from you.
Apply today and become part of a team that is making a real difference in the lives of our community every day.
