Financial Advice For Nurses And Midwives

Did you know that Australians trust nurses and midwives more than any other profession and have done so for fifteen years? It comes as no surprise, nurses and midwives are highly educated, knowledgeable, empathetic and provide amazing care in people’s time of need under very stressful circumstances.

But nursing and midwifery is hard work and it takes its toll over a forty year career. Only those who have been nurses or who have a close relationship with nurses truly understand what you go through on a regular basis.

“Nurses back” runs rampant through the industry and it has been shown that healthcare workers have 4.5 times as many back overexertion injuries than any other type of worker. Your work is stressful, there is heaps of paperwork and worst of all, night and graveyard shifts.

And on top of all of this, you have to sort out your finances as well?

Did you know that:

The average registered nurse earns $65,000 per year. However this fluctuates wildly based on penalty rates and overtime
Are able to salary package up to $9,010 per FBT year per employer, enabling you reduce your tax payable by over $2,900 per FBT year per employer?
Your personal insurance cover in super may not protect you in the event you are unable to work due to injury or illness as a nurse (especially if you suffer from nurses back)
You are now able to choose any super account you choose? You are no longer limited by one or two super providers
