Aged care staffing for Melbourne CBD facilities
Need an agency nurse in Melbourne CBD? Aspire places Registered Nurses, Enrolled Nurses, Personal Care Assistants and clinical leaders into residential aged care homes across Melbourne CBD (3000) and the rest of Inner City Melbourne.
The City of Melbourne has 6 government-approved residential aged care homes with around 694 operational beds. Most requests we see from this part of Melbourne are night shifts, weekend rosters and same-day sick-leave cover — the shifts that are hardest to fill with permanent staff alone.
Our clinicians already work nearby in Southbank (1 km), Docklands (1.6 km) and North Melbourne (1.8 km), so short-notice shifts in Melbourne CBD can usually be covered by someone who knows the area.
