Make a difference in people’s lives at home

Relative Care is seeking an Enrolled Nurse to support older people and NDIS participants across the Central Coast. This community-based role combines ongoing EN clinical practice under Registered Nurse supervision with hands-on personal care and everyday support. You will travel between client homes and community settings, with roster flexibility across a seven-day service.

Preferred locations

We particularly welcome applicants based in Chittaway Bay, Berkeley Vale, Killarney Vale, The Entrance, Long Jetty, Toowoon Bay, Shelly Beach and Bateau Bay, and surrounding Central Coast suburbs. Travel between client homes is required.

Local applicants and sponsorship

Priority will be given to suitably qualified local applicants who can reliably service the Central Coast. Applications are welcome from candidates with existing Australian work rights, whether or not sponsorship is required. Selection will be based on qualifications, experience, registration and ability to meet the role’s requirements.

Subclass 482 sponsorship is also available for eligible candidates, subject to assessment, applicable nomination and visa requirements, and Department of Home Affairs approval. For this vacancy, candidates seeking sponsorship must already be located in Australia and be willing to relocate to the Central Coast before commencing if they do not already live locally. This is an employer recruitment requirement for this vacancy, rather than a general visa eligibility rule. Sponsorship and visa approval are not guaranteed.
