Healthcare Australia (HCA) is a major provider of healthcare services across Australia, including allied health, primary care, recruitment, NDIS, care services, and training.
In December 2024, we commenced providing health, mental health and wellbeing services across the onshore Immigration Detention network. Our team, which includes nurses, general practitioners, and allied health professionals, offer a wide range of healthcare services to detainees, such as triaging, medication, wound management, immunisation, and other clinical procedures. HCA also introduced a Virtual Care Centre (VCC), a 24/7 service that provides remote healthcare through telehealth and video consultations, helping to enhance onsite care for detainees.
Join us in bringing a new approach to medical and wellbeing care for detainees by:
- Enhancing health outcomes for individuals in detention through comprehensive and sustainable healthcare solutions.
- Ensuring timely access to the most appropriate healthcare services, including general medical practice, nursing, drug and alcohol support, and allied health services.
- Delivering care that respects and acknowledges the dignity, culture, values, beliefs, and rights of detainees.
We’re offering casual roles with convenient Monday–Friday day shifts — no nights or weekends.
