Aged care jobs in Tasmania FAQs
Aged care workers are involved in the direct care of residents on a physical, personal and emotional level. An entry level role in this industry is an Assistant in nursing/Personal care worker, and you can develop your clinical skills to become a registered nurse and beyond.
We have longstanding relationships with over 400 aged care homes across Australia, in metro, regional, rural and remote areas of the country. Our presence is nationwide, so we are able to find the perfect role for you.
There are a lot of variances when it comes to pay rates, as aged care casual rates depend on your position, experience level and shift times that you work. Our casual pay rates range from:
- AIN: $38 - $75 per hour
- EN: $40 - $81 per hour
- RN: $50 - $120 per hour
Incentives, allowances and bonuses are applicable for certain areas and contract placements. Reforms in aged care have led to pay rises for aged care workers in recent years, with more developments to come.
For the majority of our roles, you do need at least 6 months experience. If you do not meet this requirement yet, some of our homes allow for new graduates to work on a trial period. If you have less than 6 months experience and have an aged care certificate, please get in contact to see what your options are available to you.
To work as an AIN/PCA with us you need to have a Cert III/IV in Ageing Support/Individual Support/Health Services Assistance. For ENs, you need a Diploma of Nursing and an AHPRA registration, and to work as an RN you need a Bachelor of Nursing degree and an AHPRA registration.
We are recruiting aged care positions on a clinical and non clinical basis, for temporary/casual, contract and permanent assignments. Casual work, or shift filling, is done on an ad-hoc or block booking basis. Contract roles range from 4 weeks - 3 months in rural, regional and remote areas of the country and permanent positions are salary based, with you being employed directly by the home.
Yes, we offer continuous online training via our Learning Management System (LMS) at no cost to you. This is tailored to your job role and regularly updated to reflect new legislation and practices.
Through working on a short term or shift filling basis, you can:
- Structure your work day/week to your schedule
- Through our contract roles, you can explore areas of the country whilst getting paid for it, with free travel and accommodation included for most of these roles.
- Set your own work/life balance
- Receive a higher hourly rate than if you were a permanent employee
