FIND A ROLE NEAR YOU

Using our current current partnerships with the [St Vincent's] hospital today, I've got about three or four registered nurses in the inner city doing training with the hospital. 

So, there are those opportunities. And I know having worked for other organisations in the past, there just isn't that ability to do that kind of link-up.

Reasons Nurses Work at St Vincent's Aged Care

'No surprise' rosters that you can actually plan your life around

  • Set rosters (rather than rotating rosters) so you know what hours to expect week after week
  • Reliable and consistent shifts whether you're running a shift during the day or night
  • Flexibility of hours to balance life outside of work

Because resident numbers are consistently high at St Vincent's, shifts are rarely (if ever) cut or changed.

Flexibility is so important. 

And the benefit of RN roles in aged care is they finish at around a time when you can pick up kids from school. We know you have a life outside of work. And family will always come before work. 

Jacalyn Newman - Behaviour Support Nurse at St Vincent's Care Hawthorn

Fast-tracked leadership progression and benefits

  • Work with your aged care facility and clinical managers for development and leadership opportunities within the St Vincent's professional network
  • In-house budget, resource and training support for the best possible development for your career
  • More opportunities for career progression within St Vincent's Health Australia's hospitals, home care and aged care
  • Better paid leadership roles in aged care compared to equivalent roles in other healthcare settings
  • Fast-tracked leadership roles where a nurse's progress is around 5 years compared to 10 years in a similar role in hospital settings

I do really want someone that I think we can develop as a leader.

The RNS are the ones on the floor, guiding the general practice of the team.

- Kirk Farquharson, Facility Manager at St Vincent's Kangaroo Point

More take home pay with salary packaging

As a not for profit, St Vincent's is able to offer salary sacrifice, which means a portion of your income can be tax free.

A nurse earning $80k a year could save over $3800 a year in tax on salary packaging.

That would mean you would need to be making over $88k in another role to take home the same amount.

Like-minded nursing colleagues that care about their role

  • Natural leaders who lead by example (and quite often want to move into leadership roles)
  • Nurses who call out injustice and issues where they see them
  • Excellent in everything they do whether that's proudly leading a team or spending a quiet moment with a resident
  • Honest and hardworking (even when no one is looking)
  • Leading by example with empathy and compassion towards families, residents and colleagues setting the example for other care staff

Because, while you can train someone to be a nurse, you can't train a passion and a love for the role.

One of our residents is in hospital at the moment and her daughter came in to pick up some clothes.

And her mother said to her, 'I can't wait to get home. ' And she [her mother] was talking about coming back here and then her daughter started crying. She said, 'I can't tell you how much that means to me that mum feels that this is her home.'

It's so heartfelt and so there's so much gratitude and such a beautiful relationship that's been formed.
