Registered Nurse - Community Care

About Us

Accept Care has proudly supported the Adelaide community for over 25 years, helping people live safely, comfortably, and with dignity in their own homes, through the provision of Home Care and NDIS home care services.  

As a people first care provider, we invest in our team and continuously strengthen the way we work so both clients and staff feel genuinely supported.

Accept Care is proud to be part of the Kinyara Health group. Through a dedicated shared services model, we have access to specialised expertise across People & Culture, Finance, IT, Growth and Quality. This collaborative support gives our team the guidance and tools they need to stay focused on what matters most: helping Australians live well in their own homes. 

About The Role

As a Registered Nurse, you'll help older Australians stay safe, healthy and independent in their own homes.

This is a highly autonomous role where you'll spend most of your time out in the community, supporting clients across Adelaide and building genuine relationships with the people you care for. No two days are quite the same, and you'll play an important role in helping clients navigate changing needs while continuing to live safely and confidently at home.

You'll work closely with our Care Partners and broader service delivery team, bringing your clinical expertise, practical judgement and person-centred approach to support great outcomes for clients and their families.

• Preference for 0.8 FTE (4 days per week, ideally Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday)
• Full-time may be considered for the right candidate
