It is a requirement for AHPRA Registration that “all registered medical radiation practitioners practicing 
in Australia are required to have in place appropriate professional indemnity insurance arrangements that are continuous throughout the period of registration.

Working With Children Checks help ensure child-safe working environments in Australia. Pre-employment screening of adults and Volunteers who come in contact with children is mandatory and legislated across most states and territories in Australia. However there is no national framework setting out the requirements for obtaining a Working With Children Check and each state and territory has their own procedures and requirements.

All applicants should contact their WWCC in the relevant State or Territory where they are seeking employment.

Each State will have it’s own requirements. Most commonly, you will need to provide evidence of immunity to: hepatitis B, measles, mumps, rubella, chicken pox (varicella), whopping cough (petussis) and TB (tuberculosis). All vaccinations must be up-to-date. A blood test will also be required to prove that you have antibodies (and hence immunity), against these conditions.

Although not a direct employee of the hospital when locuming you are still required to abide by their HR compliancy regulations before commencing your role.

It is best to preempt these requirements as 50% of the work is handed out by the public system. Archangels Care assists you in gaining immediate employment by holding all your compliancy on file and in check when registering through our agency.
