Nurses are in short supply in both City and Rural areas of Australia. If you are an Overseas Nurse and your qualifications are recognised here in Australia then you can get started on a great adventure, nursing and travelling in the Land Down Under! There are many excellent opportunities in Australia for suitably qualified Registered Nurses.

The WANA head office is located in Perth, on the beautiful and sunny west coast of Australia. As well as ongoing work in the city of Perth, we provide casual and contract work all over Australia.
Our sense of fun and our genuine interest in all our Nurses has made our Agency Number 1, both for Backpacking Nurses and those looking to immigrate to Australia.

We understand that finding a reliable and flexible employer to help you find your feet in a different country is important and our experience in this field helps us do this.

So what’s it like to Nurse in Western Australia?

Perth has a population of around 1.2 million people so compared to many of the cities in the UK – our needs are relatively small! There are only 3 major Public Teaching Hospitals in Perth, of approximately 850 beds in the largest hospital. However there are numerous smaller Public Hospitals which serve the population in various suburbs and many Private Hospitals throughout Perth.

Perth also has many Private and Public Aged Care Facilities that have ongoing staffing shortages.

We offer a comprehensive service to Nurses wishing to travel to Australia, and the West Coast in particular. Ongoing contact is maintained, with loads of friendly advice given at all times. We can arrange short term accommodation for families or couples so that there is no initial “panic” on arrival in a new country! Help is then on hand for advice regarding schools, car hire, bank loans, nursing registrations etc – all types of locally flavoured advice, which is invaluable to many a new comer!

By contacting WANA before you travel to Australia we can advise you on the correct path to ensure that you will bring all the extra paperwork you will need, such as a detailed CV & references on official letterhead.
