Permanent 1.0FTE
Temporary 0.42FTE until 23/10/2026
Booleroo Centre is a charming rural town nestled in the Southern Flinders Ranges, approximately 250 kilometres north of Adelaide. With a population of around 300, it offers a peaceful, welcoming lifestyle surrounded by stunning landscapes, rich history, and a strong sense of community.
This close-knit township values connection and tradition and provides essential local services including a hospital, schools, and small businesses—making it a self-sufficient and supportive place to live and work. The local economy is driven by agriculture, with grain, cattle, and sheep production forming the backbone of the region.
Lifestyle & Location
Nearby towns such as Melrose, Wirrabara, and Wilmington further enrich the region with markets, galleries, and community festivals. Booleroo Centre is also well connected to Port Pirie and Port Augusta, providing access to additional services and amenities when needed.
As a small rural site, nurses work dynamically across all service areas, offering excellent variety and professional development. The hospital is well supported by an onsite GP practice with after-hours on-call coverage, as well as the SA Virtual Emergency Service (SAVES), ensuring strong clinical support at all times.

These roles are competitive because employers often look for current practice credentials, readiness for compliance checks, and the ability to work across varied patient needs.
