Agency Registered Nurse In Charge Brunswick — Aged Care RN IC Cover · Day, Night & Weekend

Brunswick aged care homes book registered nurse in charge through Aspire when permanent rosters can't stretch — nights, weekends, public holidays and short-notice sick calls.

A Registered Nurse In Charge leads the shift — allocating staff, responding to clinical deterioration, managing escalations and handing over safely. Facilities need someone who can take charge from the first hour, not just fill a gap.

Each of the 18 residential aged care homes in the City of Merri-bek needs a senior nurse leading every shift — that's 54 shift-lead positions a day across the council.

Provide shift leadership, clinical oversight and support to ensure safe and effective care delivery within aged care facilities. Our experienced Nurse In Charge professionals help coordinate teams, respond to clinical needs and provide confidence during every shift.

The City of Merri-bek, about 5 km from the Melbourne CBD, has 18 government-approved residential aged care homes with around 1,584 operational beds, including 2 in Brunswick 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.
