The Opportunity:

Reporting directly to the Director of Care, the Registered Nurse (RN) is a regulated member of the interprofessional health care team who is responsible for completing comprehensive client assessments, developing and implementing client plans of care that address physical, psychological, emotional, social, behavioural, and recovery-oriented needs.

This position monitors ongoing client care and condition to ensure optimum functioning and assumes professional accountability for clients with complex and persistent mental health concerns, co-occurring conditions, and significant psychosocial challenges. The RN administers prescribed medications, supervises the delivery of medications by unregulated staff, collaborates with the interdisciplinary team, and supports clients in achieving their highest level of independence, recovery, wellness, and quality of life. This role requires a strong foundation in trauma-informed, recovery-oriented, culturally safe, and person-directed care, alongside a solid foundation in mental health. The RN must be skilled in therapeutic communication, mental status assessment, behavioural support, crisis intervention, risk assessment, and supporting clients whose needs may fluctuate in complexity and acuity.

In keeping with the Canadian Nurses Association Code of Ethics, CRNA Nursing Practice Standards and Guidelines, Carewest’s Frame of Reference, Philosophy of Care, and Carewest policies, this position maintains professional and ethical standards at all times. Demonstration of leadership is critical for success in this position.

Program Summary:

Bridgeland Riverside Continuing Care Centre's Complex Mental Health Programs provide specialized continuing care and interdisciplinary support for adults living with complex mental health conditions, addictions, cognitive impairments, acquired brain injuries, behavioural challenges, and other complex care needs. Services are delivered across a combination of secure and non-secure care environments, based on resident needs, with an emphasis on person-centred, trauma-informed, and harm-reduction approaches. Programs focus on promoting stability, safety, independence, rehabilitation, meaningful engagement, and quality of life while supporting residents in achieving their individual care goals.

Qualifications & Experience:

• Graduation from a recognized nursing program.

• GScN preferred. • Current and active registration with the College of Registered Nurses of Alberta (CRNA) required. • Current and active Basic Life Support (BLS) Provider CPR certification required. • Demonstrated advanced mental health nursing expertise is required. • CNA Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing Certification is strongly preferred. • Training in Mental Health First Aid, Non-Violent Crisis Intervention, trauma-informed care, or related education is considered an asset. • Knowledge of trauma-informed care, recovery-oriented practice, therapeutic communication, behavioural support, crisis intervention, harm reduction, and interdisciplinary mental health service delivery is strongly preferred.

• Three years of general nursing experience preferred with demonstrated leadership skills. • Recent (within the last year) and/or current experience working specifically with individuals with severe and persistent mental illness, concurrent disorders, responsive behaviours, acquired brain injury, cognitive impairment, psychosocial complexity, and other co-occurring health conditions is preferred.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
