What Can I Expect from an Aged Care Contract Role?

Contract roles, or remote area nurse (RAN) roles are a type of casual work,
undertaken as block bookings. They vary in length, usually from 4 - 12 weeks
and are in areas there is a lack of aged care workers readily available.

With these roles, you will often get additional perks such as your accommodation
and travel provided, and you work on a mixed roster.

At the end of the contract, you can choose to extend your stay or move location. With
your travel and accommodation expenses covered, you can travel the country whilst getting paid!

We offer contract work across the country. Depending on the homes needs, you may be able
to travel with your friend, family or partner if they work in aged care too.

Pay rates are under the casual award and are dependent on experience.
You may be eligible for bonuses, incentives and referral schemes too!
