Enrolled Nurses (EN) cover for Altona aged care homes

Altona aged care homes book enrolled nurses through Aspire when permanent rosters can't stretch — nights, weekends, public holidays and short-notice sick calls.

Enrolled Nurses carry much of the day-to-day clinical load — observations, wound care, documentation and medication administration under RN direction. With Victorian rules now requiring nurses rather than PCAs to administer many S4 and S8 medicines, reliable EN cover matters more than ever.

Medication rounds run several times a day in each of the 9 residential aged care homes in the City of Hobsons Bay, covering around 859 residents. With nurses now required to administer many S4 and S8 medicines, local homes need ENs on almost every shift.

Support residents' clinical care needs through monitoring, documentation, medication support and day-to-day nursing care under the direction of Registered Nurses. Our ENs bring proven aged care experience and understand the importance of safe, consistent and compassionate care delivery.

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.
