What Community Nursing Looks Like Through Carevo
Nurses working in NDIS and aged care community settings in Hobart provide clinical care in participants’ homes, supported accommodation, and community settings rather than in a hospital ward. The work is autonomous and varied, and it requires strong clinical judgement alongside the interpersonal skills to build trust with people who are managing significant health challenges at home.
Day to day, this includes conducting nursing assessments, developing and reviewing care plans, administering medications and injections, performing wound care and dressing changes, monitoring vital signs and disease indicators, and educating participants and their families about managing conditions at home. You coordinate with GPs, specialists, allied health professionals, and support workers to make sure the clinical picture is understood across the care team.
The participants you work with in Hobart include older Australians with complex chronic conditions, people with physical or intellectual disabilities who need regular clinical oversight, and individuals recovering from surgery or illness in their own homes. Many of them have been managing health conditions for years and know what they need. Others are newer to community care and need more support to understand their options.
How Carevo Works
Carevo is not a staffing agency placing nurses into fixed rostered positions. It is a curated availability directory that connects qualified nurses with NDIS and aged care providers across Australia.
The process is straightforward. You register your nursing qualifications, AHPRA registration details, clinical experience, and availability with Carevo. Carevo makes your profile visible to providers in its network who need nursing support near Hobart. When a provider has a participant requiring community nursing in your area, they can view your profile and contact you directly. You review the opportunity and decide whether it suits your clinical scope and schedule.
You are not applying for one advertised position. You are becoming visible to multiple providers operating in and around Hobart at once, which means you can be selective about the work you take on.
What Providers Expect
Providers connecting with nurses through Carevo expect current AHPRA registration with no conditions, a clear and current police check, and NDIS Worker Screening clearance. Clinical experience in community, aged care, or disability settings carries significant weight. Providers also want nurses who document accurately and communicate proactively about changes in a participant’s condition.
Pay rates for community nursing vary depending on the provider, the type of engagement (employee or contractor), and any applicable award conditions. Carevo does not set rates, and you should clarify remuneration directly with any provider who contacts you.

What nurse pay looks like

| Weekday | $29 to $52 an hour |
| Saturday | $43 to $78 an hour |
| Sunday | $50 to $91 an hour |
| Public holiday | $57 to $104 an hour |
Casual employees receive a 25% loading on top of these rates. Registered nurses sit at the upper end of these ranges and senior or specialist nurses can earn more.
Indicative hourly rates based on the Nurses Award (MA000034), reviewed October 2025. Modern award rates are national and do not vary by state. Pay is set by each provider and can be higher under an enterprise agreement. General information only, not financial advice.
