Registered Nurses (RN) cover for Avondale Heights aged care homes
Avondale Heights aged care homes book registered nurses through Aspire when permanent rosters can't stretch — nights, weekends, public holidays and short-notice sick calls.
Residential aged care homes must have a Registered Nurse on site 24 hours a day, and RN care minutes are a funded, reported target. When an RN calls in sick or a roster gap opens, an experienced agency RN keeps the facility compliant and residents safe.
With 17 residential aged care homes in the City of Moonee Valley, at least 51 Registered Nurse shifts are needed every day just to keep an RN on site around the clock — and around 995 hours of RN care a day to meet the 44-minute RN target.
Provide clinical leadership and nursing care within residential aged care settings, including assessments, care planning, medication management and complex resident care. Aspire provides RNs with proven aged care experience who understand the clinical responsibilities and person-centred approach required to support older Australians.
The City of Moonee Valley, about 10 km from the Melbourne CBD, has 17 government-approved residential aged care homes with around 1,357 operational beds, including 4 in Avondale Heights itself. 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.
