What the role involves
Podiatrists working within Carevo’s network provide foot and lower limb care to NDIS participants and aged care recipients in their homes and residential facilities across Bathurst and nearby areas. Rather than seeing clients in a clinic, you travel to them, which means you are assessing and treating people in their actual living environment.
Day to day, this includes general nail care, skin treatments, wound assessment and management, biomechanical assessments, orthotic prescription and fitting, and education on foot health and self-monitoring. Diabetic foot management is a significant part of the work, particularly in aged care settings, where early detection of complications can prevent serious outcomes.
You will also write clinical notes and contribute to NDIS or aged care documentation. If a client’s foot health intersects with other health concerns, you may communicate with their GP or other treating practitioners.
Who you would support
Your clients will typically be older Australians receiving services through a Home Care Package or Commonwealth Home Support Programme, and NDIS participants who have listed podiatry as a funded support. People with diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, neuropathy, or physical disability often have significant podiatric needs that are best addressed through regular, accessible care.
Many of the people you see in Bathurst will not have easy access to clinic-based podiatry, so mobile service delivery makes a genuine difference to their health outcomes.
How Carevo works
Carevo is not a job board listing specific open positions. It is a curated availability directory for health and care professionals.
You create a profile on Carevo, detailing your qualifications, clinical specialisations, availability, and the areas around Bathurst where you are willing to travel. Carevo then shares your profile with NDIS providers, aged care operators, and support coordinators in our network who are looking for podiatry services.
When a provider sees your profile and wants to engage you, they reach out directly. You decide whether the arrangement suits you before committing to anything. There is no lengthy application process for each individual role. Register once, and let providers find you.
Pay and working arrangements
Pay and contracting arrangements vary depending on your experience, whether you operate as a sole trader or through an employment arrangement with a provider, and the specific clients involved. Carevo does not set rates. Those conversations happen directly between you and the provider who contacts you.

What podiatrist pay looks like
Podiatrists are degree-qualified; the Health Professionals and Support Services Award sets the minimum but most are paid above award on individual agreements, so these figures are indicative market ranges rather than fixed award rates.
| Weekday | $40 to $62 an hour |
| Saturday | $60 to $93 an hour |
| Sunday | $70 to $109 an hour |
| Public holiday | $80 to $124 an hour |
Casual employees receive a 25% loading on award minimum rates; most allied health professionals work weekdays and are paid an annual above-award salary rather than hourly penalty rates.
Indicative hourly rates based on the Health Professionals and Support Services Award (MA000027), reviewed July 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.
