Cardiac Rehabilitation Services Restructure at Ballina and Casino Community Health and Lismore Hospital
Thursday 4 December, 2025
Northern NSW LHD (NNSWLHD) is proposing a change to the staffing profile within Cardiac Rehabilitation Services. This is your opportunity to have a say on how this affects you.
- Management claim that the long-term leave of a physiotherapist with specialist cardiac skills has made the current model unsustainable.
- As there are vacancies across the 3 sites, there is an opportunity to amalgamate vacant hours to create a new full-time position that can further support the department.
- The position would be a Level 3 Exercise Physiologist or Physiotherapist and be externally advertised.
