Position Type: On-Site/ Mobile Van

Salary Range: $52,000 - $61,000

Position Summary

The Crisis Intervention Nurse (Registered Practical Nurse – RPN) provides immediate nursing assessment, crisis intervention, harm reduction support, and coordinated care to individuals experiencing acute mental health, substance use, and psychosocial crises. Services are delivered at Hamilton Urban Core’s satellite located at 70 James St S and mobile health clinic, as well as within shelters, encampments, collocated community services, partner agency sites, and other community-based settings.

Working as part of a multidisciplinary and interprofessional team, the RPN delivers timely, responsive, trauma-informed, and person-centred nursing care to individuals with complex and urgent needs, including those experiencing homelessness, mental health challenges, addictions, poverty, and social marginalization.

The role focuses on crisis de-escalation, urgent nursing support, mental health stabilization, harm reduction, overdose response, health promotion, and enhancing overall well-being through direct clinical care, health teaching, advocacy, and collaboration with internal teams and external community partners. A key component of the role includes connecting individuals to services and supports available through the Hamilton HART Hub, including primary care, mental health and addictions services, counselling, treatment pathways, shelter transition beds and housing supports, case management, and recovery-oriented programming.

Operating within a health equity, anti-racism, anti-oppression, and culturally safe framework, the RPN conducts clinical assessments, supports stabilization during crises, facilitates referrals and service connections, and contributes to maintaining a safe, respectful, and inclusive environment that promotes dignity, recovery, and client-centred care.

Monitor and respond to urgent medical or psychiatric concerns and facilitate emergency intervention when required.
Provide overdose prevention education, naloxone administration/support, and harm reduction supplies as appropriate.
Support clients with wound care, infection prevention, chronic disease monitoring, and basic primary care needs.
Promote client safety, dignity, autonomy, and recovery-oriented care practices.
Deliver nursing and crisis intervention services in community settings including shelters, encampments, outreach locations, partner agencies, and mobile health units.
Engage vulnerable and hard-to-reach populations using low-barrier and relationship-based approaches.
Build therapeutic relationships with individuals experiencing homelessness, mental health concerns, addictions, and complex psychosocial challenges.
Connect and support clients in accessing services available through the Hamilton HART Hub at 430 Cannon Street East, including primary care, mental health and addictions services, counselling, case management, treatment pathways, housing supports, and recovery-oriented programming.
Assist clients in navigating healthcare and community systems and accompany or coordinate warm handoffs to services when appropriate.
Participate in interdisciplinary case conferences, care planning, and service coordination activities.
Advocate for clients experiencing barriers to healthcare and social services.
Facilitate referrals to internal and external services including withdrawal management, primary care, psychiatry, housing, and community supports.
Support continuity of care and follow-up planning for clients with complex needs.
Promote client engagement in ongoing care and recovery supports through the HART Hub continuum of care.
Maintain timely, accurate, and confidential clinical documentation in accordance with organizational policies, professional standards, and legislative requirements.
Complete incident reports, risk assessments, safety documentation, and required program statistics.

Deliver care within a culturally safe, anti-racist, anti-oppressive, and health equity framework.
