Life at Chris Barnard Health

Human-first, always.

We see the person behind the uniform. We love getting to know our nurses and care workers, whether you’re juggling kids, playing weekend sport, studying, or know the best coffee spot in town. At CBH, you’ll always be treated as a person, never just a number.

Great communication underpins everything we do. While we embrace technology, nothing replaces talking to a real person. Around 80% of our shifts are filled with a phone call, and we’ll check in with you at least weekly (unless you’d prefer otherwise).

Values-led care, backed by genuine support.

Qualifications matter, but when it comes to caring for people’s loved ones, we also look for personality, attitude, and heart. That’s how we build teams that truly belong in aged care.

Our team has your back. We proudly support student nurses and care workers, helping them grow in confidence both professionally and personally. Many of our students have gone on to senior clinical and leadership roles.

Working in aged care builds invaluable skills, communication, teamwork, and time management and we’ll help you create a strong foundation for long-term career success.

Your job. Your choice.

With 4,000+ shifts available each month, there’s always work when you want it. You choose how much, when, and where you work. Pick up extra shifts during the holidays, ease back while studying, or build consistency around your lifestyle.

You can choose to work in a small number of facilities and build strong relationships with residents and teams or work across more locations to gain broader experience. We can even help you find work close to placements or home.

Great culture, real impact, fair reward.

Our nurses and care workers do incredible work every day and we make sure you feel appreciated. We celebrate you, remember your birthday, and make work enjoyable with a fun, positive office culture, regular events, and a highly engaged Facebook community.

Our staff consistently give us 5-star ratings, and our commitment to quality has been recognised with multiple Australian Achiever Awards for Excellence in Customer Service, as well as ISO accreditation.

You’ll be paid competitively and more importantly, you’ll do work that genuinely changes lives, supporting residents, families, and teams with care that truly matters.
