Agency Registered Nurses Blackburn — Aged Care RN Cover · Day, Night & Weekend

Looking for an agency RN in Blackburn? We place aged-care-experienced registered nurses into facilities across Blackburn and the wider City of Whitehorse, day or night.

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 15 residential aged care homes in the City of Whitehorse, at least 45 Registered Nurse shifts are needed every day just to keep an RN on site around the clock — and around 1,446 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 Whitehorse, about 16 km from the Melbourne CBD, has 15 government-approved residential aged care homes with around 1,972 operational beds, including 1 in Blackburn 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.
