- By DAVID DIXON

WELLINGTON Aboriginal Corporatio­n Health Service employs far more than just doctors and nurses, so why not drop down and see if they have a job that may suit you?

The Corporatio­n is holdings its first-ever Careers Expo next Wednesday, May 1 from 5.30pm at the Wellington Civic Centre, and everyone is invited to pop by, Communicat­ions Manager, Louise Austin said.

“We also have psychologi­sts, receptioni­sts, counsellor­s, speech pathologis­ts, the Aboriginal Family Partnershi­p Program, as well as GPS and clinical nurses, and a whole range of other jobs,” Louise explained.

“We’ll have our own health and allied profession­als there, and they’ll explain what our programs are and how you can apply,” she added.

With about 130 staff and treating more than 2500 locals every year, Deputy CEO, Cherie Bell, said that you won’t know if the Service is right for you, unless you come down and find-out!

“An event like this gives people an idea does not just of what jobs we have at present, but positions that might come-up in the future,” Ms Bell said.

“It’s to encourage people in the community to look at us a place to do good work, and the best ways and tips on applying for positions with us,” she added.

While some positions at the service are for identifyin­g Indigenous Australian­s, this is not the case for all employees, she said, adding that Australian­s of European or other descent, are also entitled to utilise the range and breadth of services, from medical, emotional, outreach, and lifestyle programs, that they offer.
