Enrolled nurse jobs in Adelaide FAQs
Enrolled nurses in aged care are involved with the direct care of residents. They can join the industry either through an entry level role such as an Assistant in nursing/personal care worker and then upskilling, or by completing the relevant qualification needed.
Our enrolled nursing roles are far and wide across Australia due to our industry connections in metro, regional, rural and remote areas.
Reach out today if you are in the market for a role in Adelaide, or across South Australia.
Pay rates are stipulated by the Aged Care and Nurses Award. There are a variety of pay points that depend on your experience, location, job title and setting. The average enrolled nurse working casually will earn between $31 - $76 per hour.
For short term contract placements across the country, we offer bonuses, incentives and allowances depending on the assignment. The aged care industry is evolving, with the aged care reform roadmap leading to a pay rise for the aged care sector in recent years, with more changes to come.
For our enrolled nurses, we generally require a minimum of 6 months Australian aged care experience to join our nursing team. Get in touch today if you sit under this level, as some of our clients accept newer grads.
Enrolled nurses are required to have completed a Diploma of Nursing. This is generally a two year course completed at an educational institution, open to both residents and international students in Australia.
You can work as an enrolled nurse on a temporary/casual and contract basis. Temporary work allows you to pick up shifts when you like, whether it is last minute cancellations or block bookings. Contract assignments are often full time placements starting from 4 weeks in regional and rural areas of the country.
We have a Learning Management System (LMS) that allows for our nursing pool to educate and refresh their knowledge so they are ready for work. This is regularly updated to reflect legislation and is role specific, free of charge to you.
Through working on a short term or ad-hoc 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.
- Set your own work/life balance
- Receive a higher hourly rate than if you were on a permanent contract
