Practice Nursing Jobs – FAQ

I can only work one day per week. Is it worth me registering with you?
Yes it is! We would love to have you join our team.  Once we know your preferred day of work, we’ll work hard to place you regularly on that day.

I’ve not done relief work before, am I experienced enough to provide relief services?
Our practice nurses generally have vast experience. So long as you can be flexible, enjoy meeting new people and are happy to adapt to various situations, then you should be fine. We will never push you and we are always completely honest with you and our clients. We try to send you back to the same practice, to provide you with continuity where possible. You will be amazed at how quickly you get up-to-speed, and how quickly your confidence develops!

What if I don’t want to travel too far to work?
Not a problem! You tell us where you live and the area in which you will travel; we’ll then try to find you work that’s close to home. There is no obligation so you can always say no to any job.  We have work in a variety of locations.

What if I only want to work evenings and weekends?
That’s fine! We have a variety of shifts available and are always looking for people to do a range of hours, including weekend work.

Is there enough work available to relieve full time?
We have several full-time nurses on our team and we need more! You tell us where you live and the area in which you will travel; we’ll then try to find you work that’s matches your criteria as closely as we can.

What if a medical centre approaches me about working on permanent basis for them?
That’s great! You have an obligation under your contract to advise Maxwell Health. We then assist you in forwarding your CV and details through and help with negotiating your salary. Let us manage it for you.
