Registered nurse jobs in Hobart

Registered nurses in aged care homes are direct care workers who provide high quality care to residents on a physical, emotional and holistic level. To enter into the industry, the first clinical step is to become an Assistant in nursing/personal care worker, and through upskilling you can step into the role of a registered nurse.

We have longstanding relationships and a network of clients across Australia in the aged care industry, with the homes being situated in metro, regional, rural and remote areas.

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. All pay rates and brackets are stipulated by the aged care award. The average registered nurse casual pay rates are in-between $50 - $120 per hour

Incentives, allowances and bonuses are applicable for certain contract placements and locations. Reforms in aged care have led to pay rises for aged care workers in recent years, with more developments to come.
