General Practitioner or Nurse Practitioner for Harristown State School

Part time (one day per week)

Location: Harristown State School

As part of the Queensland Government’s Putting Queensland Kids First plan, a free primary healthcare service is delivered by a Health Practitioner at 20 state primary schools. Integrating Health Practitioners in state primary schools also assists with facilitating referrals to support services and other allied health services.

• The HPPS Program:
­ supports the establishment of a fit-for-purpose Health Practitioner clinic at 20 state primary schools; and
­ provides state primary students (i.e., students in prep to year 6) free access to a Health Practitioner (General Practitioner or Nurse Practitioner) for timely and appropriate healthcare.
• Health Practitioners working in the HPPS Program will:
­• provide a service to students within the school-based clinic one day per week during school terms;
• have a strong interest in children and adolescent health; and
• be required to bulk-bill student appointments through Medicare – students and their families will not bear any consultation costs for students to access the GP or Nurse Practitioner service.
