Registered Nurse
Visa sponsorship
Healthcare · Newcastle, NSW, Australia · Contract · Discussed at interview · Visa: Employer sponsored
Some nurses want a fixed roster, and others like the freedom of picking up shifts. If you are the second kind, kabayan, read on. A not-for-profit care organisation needs a Registered Nurse for casual work at its 72-bed aged care home in Newcastle, New South Wales.
The heart of the job is care that sees the person before the chart. You would look after the seniors who live there, stay gentle and alert with residents who have dementia, and speak up when your clinical sense tells you something has changed. An experienced, engaged leadership team and a corporate support group are there for the nurses.
The organisation is asking for someone motivated and enthusiastic, and it will consider visa sponsorship for the right candidate.
Let your CV tell that story warmly and clearly. Include your AHPRA registration, the elderly care you have done at home or overseas, and your flexibility with shifts. A good place to start is to write your aged care CV the easy way with Build AI CV.
