The posting

Job Description

This is an exciting opportunity to join the Medical Withdrawal Service. We are seeking a part-time, temporary Registered Nurse (RN) for 18 months to join this supportive and collaborative team. MWS serves adult clients with severe substance use and/or complex pain disorders plus mental health and chronic medical conditions, who require medically-supervised withdrawal and initiation of medications to stabilize their conditions and support their recovery. Using principles of harm reduction and measurement-based care, Registered Practical Nurses are an essential part of this interprofessional team. You will continuously assess and support clients’ physiological stability, mental status, risks, functional ability, stage of change, coping skills and motivation. MWS is a very welcoming and supportive team. Successful RN candidates are well supported during a robust orientation, which includes dedicated support from the Advance Practice Clinical Leader and Nurse Educator. Unit orientation focuses on developing and refining the knowledge and skills needed to work safely, lead with confidence, and provide excellent, life-preserving care to a vulnerable population.

Responsibilities

You will use evidence-based, standardized assessment and administer specialized pharmacological protocols, and will develop the skills needed to accurately assess and monitor client progress. You will administer medications safely via IV, perform wound care and prevent further physical destabilization of client health. You will also have the opportunity to use motivational interviewing skills to continuously support clients to develop goals and practice strategies that will support their early recovery. You will contribute to unit safety using a harm reduction, trauma-informed and client centred approach. You will provide leadership on the floor as Charge Nurse after 3:30pm and on weekends.

Qualifications

The successful candidate must be a member in good standing with the College of Nurses of Ontario. A current B.C.L.S. (CPR) certificate is also required. Preference will be given to candidates who possess or are currently pursuing a BScN and CNA certification in Psychiatric/Mental Health Nursing. You will have at least two years (or 3900 hours) of clinical experience within the mental health and addictions field, with a particular focus on: the identification and treatment of substance intoxication, overdose and withdrawal. This includes the use of pharmacotherapy in the treatment of substance use; and sound knowledge of crisis intervention, concurrent mental health and addiction issues, trauma-informed care, harm reduction and recovery-oriented care. The successful candidate will possess proficiency and leadership in problem-solving, decision-making, conflict resolution, negotiation, communication, delegation, critical thinking, team building and interpersonal skills. Demonstrated expertise in maintaining a culture of safety for staff, clients/patient, families and visitors according to CAMH and regulatory standards is critical. Bilingualism (French/English) or proficiency in a second language would be an asset.

Please Note: This part-time, temporary position is a 0.5 commitment, which may be subject to change as per the Collective Agreement. Additional hours may be available based on operational needs. This position is part of the ONA Bargaining Unit.

Salary Range: $41.15-$58.98/hour

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.
