Introduced in Switzerland since 2009, advanced nursing practice continues to develop. The amendment to the health law that came into force in October 2020 in Geneva now authorises advanced practices under certain conditions. As a health, care and home support institution, IMAD is strongly committed to strengthening continuity of care, efficiency of management and supporting staff skills development; two central axes of the institutional strategy.
To this end, IMAD is seeking a specialised clinical nurse (SCN) focused on home health to strengthen its team within the Interprofessional Practice Centre (CPI, under operations management), who will contribute to the implementation of advanced nursing practice within the institution.
