Registered Nurses (RN) cover for Sunshine aged care homes

Sunshine 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 16 residential aged care homes in the City of Brimbank, at least 48 Registered Nurse shifts are needed every day just to keep an RN on site around the clock — and around 917 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.

Sunshine is the health hub of Melbourne's west, home to Sunshine Hospital. Many residents move between hospital and aged care, so facilities in Brimbank need agency nurses who are confident with transfers, clinical handover, medication management and post-acute care in a residential setting.
