About the role

We're a medical service that works inside aged care homes. Our GP looks after residents on site, and we're looking for an Enrolled Nurse to work alongside them two days a week. This isn't floor nursing. You won't be doing medication rounds or covering a wing. Your day is a planned list of residents to assess, you sit with them, do the checks, write it up, and hand it to the doctor. You'll be working independently to a clear weekly schedule, with our GP in Charge for clinical direction and the facility's registered nurses on site alongside you. Every assessment goes to the doctor for review.

Key responsibilities
Health checks for residents (mostly over 75) — history, observations, weight, how they're managing day to day
Getting care plan paperwork ready for the GP to review and sign off
ECGs, lung function tests and leg/arm blood pressure comparisons — we'll train you on the equipment if you haven't used it
Checking who's due for vaccinations, and giving them with the GP there
Ear checks and ear cleaning, following our protocol
Pulling together background from resident files,



hospital letters and previous reports for recent admissions
Sitting in on case conferences with the GP, physio, podiatrist and other allied health as needed
