Job Description
Looking for a nursing role that takes you beyond the traditional clinical setting?
Join Healthcare Australia (HCA) and make a real difference by providing high-quality, person-centred healthcare while travelling across Australia and internationally.
As a Medical Escort Registered Nurse, you'll provide essential clinical care and support to individuals during domestic and international transfers, ensuring their safety, wellbeing and dignity throughout the journey.
This is a unique opportunity for experienced Registered Nurses who enjoy variety, are confident working independently and are flexible to travel at short notice.
How You'll Make an Impact!
* Providing safe, high-quality nursing care during domestic and international transfers
* Assessing and monitoring patients' health throughout their journey
* Administering medications and responding to clinical needs as required
* Working collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams and external stakeholders
Let's talk about you!
We're looking for experienced and adaptable Registered Nurses with current unrestricted AHPRA registration and a minimum of 5 years' post-registration nursing experience. Experience in Emergency Department (ED), ICU or acute care settings is highly regarded.
You'll need to be an Australian citizen with a valid Australian passport (minimum 6 months' validity) and be flexible to travel domestically and internationally at short notice, with availability to undertake ideally one medical escort assignment per month, typically lasting 1- 4 days.
Previous detention or correctional healthcare experience is highly regarded but not essential.
Why You'll Love This Role:
* Unique and interesting work – no two assignments are the same!
* Domestic and international travel opportunities
* Paid for the entire transfer period, including travel and downtime
* Different pay rates apply depending on whether you're providing direct patient care or travelling without a patient
* Opportunity to use your clinical skills in a dynamic and rewarding environment
* Ongoing training and professional development
* Join a well-established Australian healthcare organisation with 1,000+ clinicians across medical, nursing and allied health
