In the ever-evolving landscape of aged care, finding the right staffing solutions is paramount to providing quality services and ensuring the well-being of residents. Dash Group, established in Melbourne in 2018 and now operating nationally, has emerged as Australia's leading regional and rural aged care recruitment agency. With a commitment to delivering both temporary and permanent staffing solutions, Dash Group has become the preferred partner for numerous aged care facilities and Directors of Nursing across the nation.

Australia’s aging population has led to huge growth within the Healthcare sector, with around 2,671 aged care, home care, or transition care facilities currently servicing over 407,000 Australians. In addition to this there has been a huge expansion within the community aged care space with more Australians choosing to remain in their own home. The downside of this growth has been the obvious skills gap that has been created. This means our clients need to work harder to secure great talent in today’s market.

This critical issue for both regional and rural Australia—the unprecedented shortage of reliable aged care staff—is something we can help with. According to the Health Minister's 2021 care shortage report, these areas are grappling with staffing deficits that hinder the delivery of consistent and dependable aged care services. Dash Group is uniquely positioned to address this challenge, specialising in sourcing and filling vacant jobs roles in regional and rural aged care and healthcare facilities across New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia, and Queensland.

Finding great talent takes time and an extensive network which is often something our clients simply do not have.
