Nurse Training/Courses

Mediserve is fully aware of the importance of ongoing staff development and the direct effect this can have towards the quality of care provided to the general public

To ensure staff provided to facilities are always well trained, Mediserve provides them with the necessary support to undertake professional development courses.  All Mediserve staff are advised of our commitment to staff development and training and we are proud of our record of always having paid the full or major cost of all training our staff undertake.

Mediserve also has an established Indigenous Nurse Training Scholarship with Curtin University in Perth whereby we pay the full cost of all fees and books for an Indigenous student.

Please contact the nearest Mediserve office should you wish to obtain financial assistance for a particular course.  In addition Mediserve organises regular courses in CPR, Manual Handling, Fire & Safety and Aggression Management.

Occupational Health and Safety

The health and safety of all our employees is of paramount importance to Mediserve.
Mediserve, the Host Employers and our Nursing Staff all have a responsibility in maintaining a safe work environment.  We only place staff in safe working environments.

All mandatory competencies are completed and maintained by all our staff. Mandatory training has always been paid for by Mediserve and we shall continue to do this.  In addition all employees receive a safety induction and Mediserve Occupational Safety & Health Manual

All nurses must complete an Orientation Checklist at each facility that they attend in order to ensure that they are properly orientated to their environment.  All identified hazards are recorded on Mediserve’s Hazard Reporting Forms located in the OSH Manual.  These hazards are then followed through with the respective facilities to ensure that they are isolated or removed prior to our staff resuming work.          
Please contact the nearest Mediserve office should you wish to discuss or report any Occupational Safety and Health matters.  Mediserve’s OSH Manual provides guidance on responsibilities, documentation and safety procedures.
