Nurse C - Enterostomal Therapy Nurse

Under the direction of the Program Coordinator, who reports to the Manager of Ambulatory Care, the Enterostomal Therapy Nurse (ETN) provides specialized nursing services to individuals in Southern Saskatchewan who may develop or have a disorder of the genitourinary, gastrointestinal, and integumentary systems. The counseling, education and care provided by the ETN is evidence-based and assists the individual to attain an optimal level of rehabilitation and quality of life. The ETN collaborates with the individual, significant others, and members of the health care team. As a consultant, educator, clinician, researcher, and administrator the ETN must respond to many unscheduled inpatient and outpatient situations. The incumbent must be flexible, adaptable, and able to priorize care. The ETN functions in accordance with the RQHR policies and procedures.
