The Mental Health and Addictions Nurse will have a sound knowledge of the Nuu-chah-nulth Central Region First Nations, community membership, and organizational values and beliefs. A core component in service delivery includes providing nursing care services and mental health and emotional support to community members. The Mental Health and Addictions Nurse goes beyond clinical duties by providing mental health and addiction education to the individual client, family, community, and Leadership of the First Nations communities. Supporting community capacity building through staff engagement and training will be the expected lens of which all work is delivered. In addition, the nurse will engage in training opportunities that enhance service delivery with strong self-reflective skills to ensure community engagement is beneficial to the First Nation communities we serve.
