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

Kew 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 26 residential aged care homes in the City of Boroondara needs a senior nurse leading every shift — that's 78 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 Boroondara, about 6 km from the Melbourne CBD, has 26 government-approved residential aged care homes with around 2,272 operational beds, including 6 in Kew 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.
