Kenmore Health Recruitment

30/10/2025

Back in 2012, Sarah took on her first Remote Area Nurse role as what she describes as “green but keen" agency nurse working in the Northern Territory.

The learning curve was steep. There were moments she wanted to pack up and go home — and even a few nurses who questioned why she was there.
“Aren’t you a bit young for this?”
“What experience do you even have?”

It’s a reminder that sometimes, nurses can be the harshest on their own. We often “eat our young,” when what we should be doing is lifting them up.

With the nursing workforce aging and demand for Remote Area Nurses growing, we can’t afford to shut people out simply because they’re new. What we can do is make sure they’re properly supported, mentored, and placed safely.

That’s exactly why Kenmore Health Recruitment was founded — by nurses and midwives who’ve been there themselves, and who believe that opportunity, done right, changes everything.

I’ve worked as a nurse and midwife for more than 20 years now, across a range of settings — from metropolitan hospitals to some of the most remote corners of Australia. More than four of those years were spent as a Remote Area Nurse (RAN), after being given an opportunity as a “green but keen....

You know what’s fun? Turning up for a contract after hours and finding out your “sorted” accommodation… doesn’t exist. (Not fun at all, actually. 0/10, do not recommend.)

Agency life comes with perks, but travel + accommodation entitlements can be murky if you don’t know what to ask. Flights vs fuel caps, pets vs no pets, caravans, car hire, family housing… it’s a whole thing.

So we made you a guide (with a checklist, because ). Read it, save it, share it with your agency buddies. Future-you will thank you.

When you’re considering a contract as an agency nurse or midwife, the clinical side of the job often takes centre stage. But there’s another piece of the puzzle that can make or break your experience: travel and accommodation entitlements.What’s covered? What’s not? And why does it seem to c...

✨ Nurses + Midwives, Darwin wants you. ✨

Pack your stethoscope and your sense of adventure — we’ve got spots at Royal Darwin Hospital for ED RNs, ICU RNs and Midwives who are ready to swap suburbia for sunsets and humidity hair.

Here’s the deal:
📍 Darwin. Big tertiary hospital. Busy. Brilliant.
🗓️ Start ASAP — contracts from 4 to 12 weeks (yes, you can still be home for Christmas pav).
✈️ Travel and accomodation — sorted by us!
💰 Rates vary depending on your experience. Send us your CV and RN/RM level and we’ll give you the exact figure for your increment (no smoke, no mirrors)
⏰ Pick up extras if you want them (paid at proper penalty rates — NT Health just doesn’t do “overtime” the same way)
🎁 A $500 “you did it!” bonus — your choice: straight into pay or a shiny VISA gift card.

Why go?
Because it’s a chance to do important work in a supportive team, soak up a new pace of life, and maybe develop an unhealthy mango smoothie addiction.

👋 Flick us a message if you’re keen, or tag your mate who keeps saying “one day I’ll try agency work.” This could be their one day.

Midwives – We See You (and We Know You’re Not the Same as a Nurse)!

At Kenmore Health Recruitment, we get the difference — because our team includes actual midwives who understand the scope, the standards, and the responsibility that comes with your role.

We know you're a skilled cohort of professionals specialising in all things pregnancy, birth and postpartum — and that's exactly why we're the perfect agency for you.

Whether you’re solely qualified as a midwife or a dual-qualified midwife/nurse, we understand the unique role of the midwife — and we’re here to support you in it.

Whether it’s MGP, remote clinic work, postpartum care or LBS, we have contracts to suit a range of midwifery skill sets — from 2-week stints to 12-week placements.

We won’t treat you like an obstetric nurse. We know midwifery is its own profession — and we treat it with the respect it deserves.

Right now, we have amazing opportunities for Registered and Endorsed Midwives across metro, regional and remote locations — including contracts where your full scope is actually supported.

✔️ LBS, antenatal, postnatal + continuity positions
✔️ Rural + remote contracts where midwifery care matters
✔️ Backed by a team that understands your role and supports it properly

💸 Competitive pay
🎁 Sign-on bonuses
🚗 Travel + accommodation covered
📞 A midwife at the end of the phone, not a call centre script

If you’ve ever felt like your profession gets misunderstood — we see you. And we’d love to work with you.

Message us or register your interest via the link in bio.
No fluff, no pressure — just real support for real midwives.

🩺 ED Nurses, RANs, Midwives, Corrections + GP Nurses – come join our crew

Looking for an agency that actually gets it? You’ve found it.

Kenmore Health Recruitment was started by nurses and midwives who’ve been there – the double shifts, the “you’ll be fine” rural handovers, the group texts chasing payroll. We know what works. And what definitely doesn’t.

Right now we’re growing our pool and would love to hear from:
✔️ ED Nurses
✔️ Remote Area Nurses (RANs)
✔️ Midwives (rural, LBS – and ✨ extra love if you're endorsed!)
✔️ Corrections / Prison Nurses
✔️ GP / Practice Nurses

Whether you're after the odd shift or a longer contract, we’ve got options across metro, regional and remote – and we’ll work with you to find what fits.

Here’s the good stuff:
💸 Competitive pay (no mystery maths)
🎁 Sign-on bonuses on selected contracts
✈️ Travel + accommodation covered
🙌 Real humans who check in and mean it

We work with Registered Nurses and Midwives, and we’re always happy to chat – no pressure, no sales pitch - honest chat!

Head to www.kenmorehealthrecruitment.com.au/apply-now to apply or drop us a DM!

Agency life, minus the "Fluff"!

Not all RANs wear scrubs (AKA Capes)!
Some just carry three phones, have a good IV hand, and know how to read the room.

We’re working with WA and NT sites that need skilled, grounded Remote Area Nurses.

Some contracts need extensive experience and paperwork. Others are a good entry point for ED nurses ready to step into the remote lifestyle and give RAN life a go.

👉 We'll help you figure out where you’d thrive — not just survive.

At Kenmore Health Recruitment, we won’t throw you into a role that doesn’t fit just to “fill a seat.” We’ve seen that movie, and it ends badly for everyone.
We want nurses who are capable, collaborative, and know how to back themselves and their team!

Shiftwork is overrated and definitely not for everyone!
Coffee that doesn’t come out of a vending machine? Underrated.

We’ve got Perth GP nurse roles that actually fit your life.
✅ Weekdays only
✅ School hours available

– Between longer contracts
– Craving routine and balance
– Done with the shiftwork chaos
- Looking for practice nursing roles

We don’t just match you to any job — we find what works for you and the team you're joining.
