Experienced nurse looking for a different pace? Put your skills and experience where they matter most.

Are you an experienced Registered Nurse looking for a different working environment where you can continue making a meaningful contribution to someone's life?

Perhaps you have spent years working in busy hospital wards or residential aged care and are now looking for a more focused approach to nursing, with the opportunity to concentrate on one person's care.

Trefoil Care Services is seeking a Registered Nurse Division 1 to join our team at Brewster, approximately 30 minutes southwest of Ballarat.

This opportunity may suit an experienced nurse looking to reduce their working hours, a semi-retired professional, a nurse who has retired but wishes to continue practising, or someone considering returning to nursing.

Why consider this opportunity?

A focused approach to nursing

Provide dedicated, individualised nursing care to one person with complex support needs who requires assistance with all aspects of daily living, with a focus on their clinical needs, dignity, comfort and quality of life.

A collaborative and supportive team

Purpose-built home and manual handling equipment

The role is based in a fully equipped, purpose-built home with manual handling equipment to support safe care, including a ceiling hoist, Standing transfer aide and commode chair and Hi/Lo adjustable bed.

Permanent part-time employment

Work approximately 14–21 hours per week on a rotating roster, including weekends. This may suit nurses looking to maintain their professional skills while allowing more time for personal commitments.

Above-award hourly remuneration

We recognise the value of nursing experience and offer an above-award hourly rate. (We pay on the Nurses Award 2020, we are not a signatory to the Nurse’s EBA )

A rural working environment

- Promoting dignity, comfort, safety, wellbeing and quality of life.
