Mental Health Professional - Work From Home

Your career in healthcare made personal

At Medibank we’ve recently unified our health services under one brand – Amplar Health.

With over 1000 employees, our nurses, GPs and other amazing allied Health Professionals our focus is on improving healthcare experiences and championing greater access, choice, and control for people in Australia when it comes to managing their health.

The Opportunity

Amplar Health is proud to be one of Australia’s largest providers of telephone and web-based health support services.  Our Mental Health Professionals deliver publicly and privately funded Mental Health services, from counselling to crisis support and connect consumers to the care they need at the time that they need it.  Our Mental Health nurses, counsellors, social workers and psychologists utilise a range of modalities that include telephone, video, SMS, email, web chat as well as a smartphone app. 

We’re thrilled to share that our Amplar Health Mental Health team will be delivering the Head to Health intake line for the NSW community.

As a Mental Health Clinician in our Health to Health team, we look to you to safely and efficiently manage calls and webchats that involve Mental Health triage, risk assessment and Mental Health education, assessment referral to local Mental Health providers and high-quality crisis intervention for people experiencing emotional distress, general depression and anxiety issues.

About You

We are looking for mix of full-time and part-time (0.6 FTE minimum) AHPRA registered Mental Health nurses/psychologists and AASW accredited social workers who share our vision to shift the way healthcare is provided in Australia.

Ideally you will have a minimum 3 years Mental Health experience in relevant clinical settings, ensuring that you will have proficient knowledge of common private and public referral and treatment pathways within a stepped model of care provision.
