"I am surrounded by a wonderful team."
– Emma Nugent, Registered Nurse
You will be joining teams of dedicated nurses like Emma, who relocated to Tasmania from Ireland with her husband and two children in January 2022 for better career opportunities and a beach lifestyle.
Emma now works in the Royal Hobart Hospital's cardiology outpatient clinic alongside a supportive and dynamic team and loves that she is able to build strong relationships with her patients: “You get to know them as a person. That’s something really special.”
The young family has fully embraced the Tasmanian lifestyle: “There's so much on our doorstep. The children have something on nearly every night of the week: netball, AFL, swimming, karate, tennis, basketball, surf lessons. And our weekends are full of sport, or just going out for hikes, or going down to the beach or meeting up with friends – there's always something on.”
Doing meaningful work in a meaningful place
For those considering a move, Tasmania offers a unique blend of career growth, work-life balance, and a slower pace of life surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty. Discover the vibrant city life of Hobart and Launceston, the close-knit community feel of regional towns and the rugged landscapes that define Tasmania.
Our smaller teams mean you can work closely with decision-makers and be involved in the development of new initiatives and programs. Professional development is also a key focus within the Tasmanian Health Service and our work is underpinned by our CARE values of Compassion, Accountability, Respect and Excellence. With a supportive team environment and opportunities for growth, Tasmania is the perfect place to advance your career.
