Requests are anonymised: no names, contact details or health information are stored or shown. A suburb is named only when it has at least three requests in the window; otherwise the region is shown. Who is asking and the timing are inferred from the request by Carevo's classifier, and timing is described in the past tense once a request is more than 30 days old. Regenerated from Carevo's database at each deployment. How we calculate these numbers.

had no response from any provider or worker

Carevo sent out 189 of these requests. A provider responded to 175 and an independent worker responded to 26. No independent worker responded to the other 163; a provider responded to 151 of those. 12 (6%) had no response from any provider or worker through Carevo. Each request goes to providers as well as workers, and up to two independent workers can contact it, so a request with no response on the day it arrives may not stay that way.

How it works

Carevo is not a job board with fixed listings. You register once, and the requests near you come to you.

01

Register your availability

Your role, the suburb you work from, how far you will travel, your availability and the checks you hold. About two minutes, and you can change any of it later.

02

You see the requests near you

Open care requests within 30 km that match your services and funding types show on your dashboard, and each new one is emailed to you: area, needs, funding and timing.

03

You contact the ones that fit

Contact details are shown when you choose to contact a request. Up to two workers can contact each one, and providers receive the same requests, so a prompt reply helps.

What nursing assistant pay looks like

Nursing assistants (assistants in nursing) are paid under the Nurses Award; those working in residential aged care receive higher aged-care nursing rates that include the October 2025 work-value increase.

Casual employees receive a 25% loading on top of these rates. Aged care employers pay at the upper end of this range from October 2025.

How that compares, as of 1 July 2026

$36.22–$40.49

an hour · SCHADS Award minimum, Level 2–3 full-time (Fair Work pay guide)

$73.58

an hour · NDIS price limit for standard weekday self-care support: the most a provider can bill a participant's plan for that hour, which funds wages, on-costs and overheads. A service price cap, not a worker wage (Pricing Schedule 2026–27)

Work out your own rate with the SCHADS award tool or the pay rate calculator.

Indicative hourly rates based on the Nurses Award (MA000034), reviewed October 2025 (Fair Work pay guides). 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.

Checks, qualifications and what providers look for are the same in every state: nursing assistant checks and credentials.
