What aged care staffing does E4 People provide?
We offer three staffing models. Most aged care providers use a mix.
- Agency staffing: for sick calls, no-shows and last-minute roster gaps. Confirmed booking or status update in under 20 minutes.
- Contract placements: for extended leave, regional and remote homes and sustained gaps. Usually 4–12 weeks, with travel and accommodation arranged by E4.
- Permanent recruitment: for building a stable core team and leadership roles. Brief to shortlist in 2–4 weeks for clinical roles.
Roles
Which aged care roles do you fill?
We place clinical, leadership and support staff in residential and community aged care, from a single night shift to a permanent Director of Nursing.
Every candidate is matched to your facility type, care model and residents, not just to an open shift.
ROLES WE PLACE:
✓ Registered Nurses (RNs)
✓ Enrolled Nurses (ENs)
✓ Personal Care Workers (AIN/PCA)
✓ Clinical Care Coordinators and Managers
✓ Directors of Nursing
✓ Facility, Regional and Operations Managers
✓ Quality, lifestyle, admin, chefs and cooks
Compliance
How do you make sure agency staff are compliant?
Every worker is checked in-house by our Compliance Officers before their first shift, so you never chase paperwork.
That matters under the Aged Care Act, which started on 1 November 2025. Providers remain responsible for every worker on the floor, including agency staff.
CHECKED BEFORE EVERY PLACEMENT:
✓ AHPRA registration verified
✓ National Police Clearance
✓ Working With Vulnerable People check
✓ Minimum two professional referees
✓ Immunisation records
✓ Role-specific requirements, including Aged Care Quality Standards
Care minutes
How can agency staff help you meet care minutes and 24/7 RN cover?
Residential providers must deliver an average of 215 care minutes per resident per day, including 44 RN minutes, and have an RN on site 24/7. A single unfilled night shift can put both at risk.
We protect your targets with a fast booking response, an after-hours team and regular staff who already know your home. That includes regional, rural and remote homes in all states and territories.
HOW WE PROTECT YOUR COVER:
✓ Booking response in under 20 minutes
✓ After-hours team, 24/7
✓ Regular staff who know your residents
✓ Regional and remote cover, with travel and accommodation arranged
✓ RN, EN and care worker shifts
