About The Position

UPA of NSW is building a directly employed casual team of Registered Nurses across Orange for Christmas, New Year and beyond. These are direct UPA employment opportunities—not agency placements. You won’t just be another name filling a shift; you’ll be a UPA employee and part of the team from day one. You’ll receive a proper UPA induction, ongoing workplace support and the chance to work with familiar residents, teams and homes rather than starting from scratch every shift. It’s the flexibility of casual nursing, with real connection and support—and the potential to move into ongoing or permanent employment when opportunities become available. As a Registered Nurse with UPA, you’ll provide high-quality, evidence-based and resident-focused clinical care, supporting our residents to maintain their independence, wellbeing and quality of life. You’ll also play an important role in providing clinical guidance and support to the wider care team.
