Community Health Connect was built on one belief: that getting the right nurse into the right role is worth doing carefully. We work in a single field and a single place, aged care nursing across Tasmania, and we know it well.
The Tasmanian Aged Care Compliance Brief

Quality over volume, every time.
Anyone can forward a long list of CVs. Placing the right person in the right role takes time, judgement and genuine local knowledge. That is the work we do.
Thorough vetting
Credentials, references and suitability are confirmed before anyone reaches your shortlist, so there are no surprises later.
Genuine local knowledge
From the north west coast to the Hobart suburbs, we understand the local market because it is the only market we work in.
Relationships first
We would rather make the right placement than a fast one, and we build relationships that last.

Leadership appointments call for a different approach.
Senior leaders set the tone for an entire facility, so the right appointment is crucial. CHC Search is our dedicated search service for these roles: we take the time to understand your facility’s culture and priorities. We run a discreet, targeted search built around what genuinely fits. The result is a shortlist of leaders who are right for the role, not just available for it.
