On ANZAC Day, we think about service and what it really means.

Many of Australia's veterans now live in aged care homes. Some have medals tucked away in bedside drawers. Some tell stories, some stay quiet. All of them shaped the country our nurses are proud to work in.

Our aged care nurses show up every day for early morning cares, for a quiet conversation after a hard night, for the moments that don't make headlines but matter deeply.

This ANZAC Day, we're grateful for the veterans who served, and for the nurses who carry that spirit of dedication forward in their own way.

Lest we forget. 🌹

2️⃣ Variety of settings that match your skill level
3️⃣ A support team that picks up the phone
4️⃣ Access to training and CPD
5️⃣ A culture that values nurses as people

According to safeworkaustralia.gov, body stressing injuries have been the leading cause of serious injury for healthcare workers in Australia consistently for over a decade.

This 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐡, we're acknowledging the real, physical toll of the work nurses and care workers do every single day.

To every nurse, AIN, midwife, and support worker out there: your safety matters. Use the equipment. Ask for help. Report discomfort early. You can't care for others if you're running on an injured body.

Did you know the majority of hospital care in Australia happens in emergencies and acute care settings?

According to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, around 9 in 10 hospitalisations are classified as acute care across public and private hospitals, including emergency departments and ICUs.

MYTHS vs FACTS : Working as a Nurse in an Agency

There’s a lot of misinformation about agency nursing. Here’s the truth based on research and regulatory guidance:

✔️ FACT: Many experienced nurses choose agency work for flexibility, variety, and autonomy.
✔️ FACT: Agency nursing often offers competitive hourly pay, especially for unsocial hours, though benefits like paid leave may differ.
✔️ FACT: You can build regular schedules and long-term agency relationships, creating reliable work.
✔️ FACT: Agency nurses gain broad clinical experience across settings, strengthening skills and opening doors to future opportunities.

📍 Registered & regulated: In Australia, to work in any nursing role (agency or permanent), you must be registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) & Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia (NMBA) ensuring safety and professional standards.

Agency nursing is a valid, respected career path, and an empowering choice for many nurses.
