Job Description

About the Role

Wesley Mission Queensland is seeking a Casual Enrolled Nurse to join our Supported Disability Accommodation (SDA) team.

This hands-on clinical role involves delivering high-quality, person-centred care within small, shared home environments where people with disabilities are supported to live independently and with dignity. Rather than working in a large residential or hospital setting, you will build meaningful relationships with participants living in their own homes, providing tailored clinical support that reflects their individual needs and goals.

As a Enrolled Nurse specialising in High Intensity NDIS supports, you will work with participants with complex needs, including enteral feeding, catheter and bowel care, tracheostomy and ventilation support, dysphagia management, and other specialised interventions.

Key Responsibilities

  • Provide direct nursing care to residents
  • Develop, implement, and review care plans
  • Medication management and oversight
  • Administer PEG medications
  • Supervise and support care staff
  • Ensure safe, compliant, and person-centred care
  • Contribute to staff training and clinical guidance
  • Manage high-acuity, complex clients with increasing clinical fragility

What We Offer

  • Salary packaging up to $18,550 (increase your take-home pay)
  • Flexible shifts to support work-life balance
  • Free, secure on-site parking
  • Ongoing training and development
  • Supportive and collaborative team culture
  • Opportunity to work with a values-driven not-for-profit

Permanent EN Pay Rates

  • Mon–Fri (AM shifts): $35.39 – $38.57 per hour
  • Mon–Fri (Afternoon shifts): $39.81 – $43.39 per hour
  • Mon–Fri (PM shifts): $40.70 – $44.36 per hour
  • Saturday: $53.09 – $57.86 per hour
  • Sunday: $70.78 – $77.14 per hour
  • Public Holidays: $88.48 - $96.43 per hour

The Reality

This role is rewarding — Like any healthcare position it can also be challenging at times.

  • Fast-paced, sometimes complex clinical environment
  • Requires sound clinical judgement and resilience
  • Working with diverse and evolving care needs

You’ll be supported by a strong team and leadership — and you’ll see the real impact of your work.

About You

  • Enrolled Nurse with a passion for person-centred care
  • Strong clinical assessment and communication skills, with the ability to work autonomously in a complex environment
  • Calm, resilient, and confident in decision-making
  • Collaborative team player

Essential Requirements

  • Current AHPRA registration
  • Demonstrated clinical nursing experience (disability desirable)
  • Strong documentation and communication skills
  • Understanding of clinical governance and quality improvement
  • Current driver’s licence and willingness to travel
  • Relevant probity checks and vaccination compliance

We focus on:

  • Clinical excellence and safety
  • Supporting independence and quality of life
  • Creating a respectful, consistent, and empowering environment
