Registered Nurses

Collaboration

In aged care settings, registered nurses are responsible for providing a wide range of specialised care to meet the unique needs of older adults. They assess the health status and care requirements of clients, develop individualised care plans, and implement appropriate interventions to promote optimal well-being. Registered nurses in aged care collaborate with clients, their families, and a multidisciplinary team to ensure comprehensive and person-centred care.

Role Tasks

The responsibilities of registered nurses in aged care encompass various aspects of health management. They administer medications, monitor vital signs, provide wound care, and manage complex health conditions. They also play a crucial role in promoting preventive care measures, such as immunizations and health screenings, to maintain the overall health of their clients. In addition, registered nurses in aged care provide emotional support and guidance to clients and their families, helping them navigate the challenges of ageing and promoting a sense of dignity and independence.

To be accepted as a registered nurse at AB Nurses Support Services, candidates must possess a Bachelor of Nursing degree or an equivalent qualification and be registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA). We value experience in aged care and look for candidates who demonstrate a genuine commitment to working with older adults. Strong communication skills, empathy, and the ability to build rapport with clients and their families are essential qualities for success in this role.
