Aged care staffing for Altona facilities
Residential aged care homes in Altona (3018) can book Registered Nurses, Enrolled Nurses, Personal Care Assistants and shift leaders through Aspire Nursing Agency — a licensed, aged-care-only agency supplying staff across Metropolitan West, including Williamstown, Newport, Spotswood and Altona North.
The City of Hobsons Bay, about 13 km from the Melbourne CBD, has 9 government-approved residential aged care homes with around 859 operational beds. Homes in the area lean on agency cover for the same pressures seen across Victoria: keeping a Registered Nurse on site around the clock, hitting funded care-minute targets and filling sick calls before the shift starts.
