I’m going to start with myself:

My Digital Health Fellowship will wrap up in August this year and I’d love to come back to New Zealand.

If you know of or are willing to create a position for an enthusiastic anaesthetist who has jumped head-first into digital health then please get in touch.

I’m looking for a position in which I am paid at SMO rates to do Digital Health 1/2 time and clinical anaesthesia the other 1/2. Additionally, I am seeking mentoring and support in management, executive engagement , and strategy as I develop further in these areas.

A side point is that my lovely wife will also need to land a job as an academic colorectal surgeon. And we need a good nanny!

My CV is attached; please feel free to forward it to appropriate people.

Cheers

Nathan

I had that exact question for @SamuelWong NPs work at such an advanced scope of practice that I believe they are ideally suited to this project

Hi Kate and Karen

The two roles fall into my research team.

I’ll have to check with our governance and project sponsors of these position. A major proportion of this role is to support the quality assurance requirements of Vensa’s Precision-Driven Health funded research project that is looking to safely automate the relaying to patients of normal laboratory results. The current gaps in our research team include expertise in Maori engagement, and a medical lead (which can also facilitate access to their practice as a co-investigator).

A nurse practitioner could practically fill the needs of the Maori engagement lead but I will have to check with the project governance membership to determine if a nurse practitioner’s suitable for that position. However, I am open for expresions of interests of suitably qualified nurse practitioners that will then be reviewed on a case-by-case basis by the clinical members of our project governance.

The GP lead must be FRNZCGP.
