Current (valid within 3 years) criminal record check or the ability to obtain prior to starting.

We work with compassion, care and open minds.

We remember our origins and our part in the community.

Life at NoosaCare as an Enrolled Nurse

Here’s a little bit about what sets us apart from other workplaces:

Grounds that are more comparable to a resort than other aged care facilities or hospitals. Say goodbye to clinical long grey hallways and hello to open air breezeways that meander through our mature landscaped gardens.

Extra Leave: You’ll accrue 6 weeks of Annual Leave per annum (with 17.5% loading for when you use it) and 10 Personal Leave days plus an additional 5 days per annum of Infectious Disease Leave and 3 days per annum of Natural Disaster Leave. You’ll also have access to up to 12 weeks of Paid Parental Leave.

Progression opportunities are built into the EN classification structure. Allowances are also on offer for those that have completed additional post-graduate qualifications. Study Leave benefits are also available to further your knowledge.

Recognition Bonuses: Receive a bonus of $375 after tax each year of service you complete after 10 years.

Above Award Rates: With pay well above the award rate, you’ll also receive annual, incremental pay increases under our Enterprise Agreement conditions on top of any CPI increases with NoosaCare. We also pay superannuation contributions on a fortnightly basis, allowing your super to accumulate interest faster.

Salary Packaging Benefits – Package up to $15,900 of your pay per annum with an option to package an additional $2,600 for meals and entertainment, you’re able to increase your take home pay by lowering our taxable income.

Make real, meaningful connections - You’ll be able to build relationships with NoosaCare residents and see the difference you’ve made in their lives every day.
