## 👶 R24k+ for Paediatric Enrolled Nurses: Permanent Role at Tshepo Themba!

 


Calling all **SANC-registered Enrolled Nurses** in Gauteng! 🏥

**Tshepo Themba Private Hospital** (Clinix Health Group) in Soweto is looking for a dedicated **Enrolled Nurse for their Paediatric unit**. If you are passionate about child health and want to move into the private sector with full benefits (Medical Aid + Pension), this is your moment.

### 📍 The Quick Facts:

 * **Role:** Enrolled Nurse Paediatric

 * **Location:** Soweto, Gauteng (Tshepo Themba Private Hospital)

 * **Salary:** R22k – R26k CTC (Based on 3yrs exp) + Night/Weekend Allowances

 * **Closing Date:** 12 May 2026 (**14 Days Left!**)

 * **Type:** Permanent

### 🛠️ What the Job *Actually* Is

You’ll be providing bedside care to the smallest patients. This is high-quality, holistic nursing in a private environment.

 * **Direct Care:** Meds, vitals, feeding, and wound care specifically for children and infants.

 * **Support System:** You aren't just treating the child; you’re supporting distraught parents and coordinating with the Registered Nurse (RN).

 * **High Standards:** Private hospitals have zero tolerance for poor documentation or low-quality care. You’ll be charting accurately and maintaining a safe, "Lean" environment.

### 🚩 The "Jobbing101" Reality Check

 * **Don't let "Entry Level" fool you:** The post says entry level, but the requirements strictly demand **3+ years of paediatric experience**. New grads will likely be filtered out.

 * **SANC & BLS must be Active:** If your SANC registration is lapsed or your Basic Life Support (BLS) certificate has expired, don't waste your time. You need proof of active status.

 * **Specialization is Key:** If you have 10 years of experience in adult surgical but zero years in Paeds, you will be at a disadvantage. Children’s vitals and IMCI protocols are unique.

 * **Shift Work is Real:** 12-hour shifts, nights, weekends, and public holidays are part of the deal. The hospital never closes!

### ✅ Who Should Apply?

 * **Qualifications:** Matric + Enrolled Nursing Qualification + Active SANC Registration.

 * **Skills:** Valid BLS certificate is non-negotiable.

 * **Experience:** 3+ years in a paediatric ward (Private sector experience is a huge plus).

 * **Ideal Candidate:** An Enrolled Nurse currently at a public hospital (like Chris Hani Baragwanath) looking for better staffing ratios and private sector benefits.

### ❌ Who Should SKIP This?

 * **Auxiliary Nurses:** This is specifically for the Enrolled Nurse category.

 * **No Paeds Exp:** If you don't have experience with sick babies/children, skip this.

 * **Lapsed BLS:** You must have a current, valid certificate to be considered.

 * **Commute Issues:** You need to be able to get to Dobsonville/Soweto for early shift starts.
