Enrolled Nurses

Collaboration

Enrolled nurses in aged care settings work closely with registered nurses and other healthcare professionals to provide holistic care to older adults. They assist in the assessment and planning of care, contribute to the implementation of care plans, and monitor the well-being of clients. Enrolled nurses play a vital role in ensuring the comfort, safety, and dignity of clients in aged care facilities.

Role Tasks

The responsibilities of enrolled nurses in aged care encompass a wide range of tasks. They provide assistance with activities of daily living, such as bathing, dressing, and feeding, while promoting independence and maintaining privacy and dignity. Enrolled nurses administer medications, monitor vital signs, and assist in wound care management. They also provide emotional support and companionship to clients, helping them navigate the challenges of ageing and maintaining their overall well-being.
