Committed to providing genuine, personalised support that focuses on the individual.

Zita is highly responsive and an excellent communicator. In working with her to find suitable candidates for her team, she has shown great motivation and flexibility, often making herself available for interviews outside standard hours to ensure her facility remains well-resourced.

Business Development & Sales Manager

 i had the pleasure of working under Zita Kounou’s management during my contract as a travel nurse at Murravale Residential Home, and it was truly one of the most positive and supportive experiences of my nursing journey.

From the very beginning, I felt heard and valued. Despite arriving unfamiliar with one of the documentation programs, something that often varies between facilities across Australia, Zita took the time to patiently teach me. Her support never felt rushed, and her kindness made it easy to ask questions and learn. We quickly developed a rapport, and I came to see her as someone I could trust and rely on. If anything went wrong, she was only ever a phone call away.

Zita is not only an exceptional facility manager but also a natural mentor with a wealth of knowledge to share. At the time, I was still considered a new graduate, and her guidance helped shape my confidence and clinical skills in a safe and empowering environment. She created space for growth and truly fostered my development as a nurse.

I am incredibly grateful to have worked with Zita and to have had her as my manager. Thank you, Zita, for your patience, guidance, and generosity. I sincerely hope we have the opportunity to work together again in the future.

William , O. -  Disability Support Worker

I have had the pleasure of working with ZikCare in my role as a recruiter within the aged care sector and I can confidently say she is an exceptional asset to any organisation she supports. ZikCare consistently demonstrates deep expertise in risk and compliance across both aged care and the NDIS, with a strong focus on clinical governance.

Her ability to step into facilities and quickly identify gaps through thorough audits and analyses is truly impressive. ZikCare doesn't just identify problems; she provides practical, actionable solutions and delivers targeted training that supports staff at every level, from executive managers to frontline workers and cleaners. Her commitment to quality and safety is evident in everything she does.

In addition to her consulting work, ZikCare also provides hands-on nursing services for both aged and disability care, making her contributions both strategic and practical. I frequently engage with her to help address staffing shortages, especially for registered nurses and executive-level roles. Her professionalism, reliability, and insights are second to none.

Jenny Dang I Senior Recruitment Consultant

I have had the pleasure of working with Zita Kounou in both a recruitment and professional collaboration capacity. In an industry where follow-through can be inconsistent, Zita has consistently stood out as someone who does precisely what she says she will do — promptly, competently and with genuine expertise.

Zita’s clinical knowledge is evident in every interaction, and her ability to translate that into effective risk management, compliance, and governance strategies is exceptional. She combines deep experience in the aged care sector with a practical, solutions-focused approach, making her an invaluable resource for facilities that need clear, actionable guidance.

She is one of the few people I would actively seek out for advice on clinical governance or operational risk — not only because of her qualifications, but because of her rare ability to bridge high-level strategy with on-the-ground realities. Whether working with managers, nursing staff or support teams, Zita is a trusted expert who delivers real results.

Erin Rolandsen
CEO, Angel Assist

Having worked with Zita and her support she has for training and developing those around her only benefits the facility, she has a keen eye for supporting struggling new graduates and nurses in early tenure. An incident took place at a facility she was concerned regarding an RN1; they struggled with preforming as a nurse as a whole, she took them aside and spoke with them in depth about what they required to perform as a nurse, not only did she dedicate her time to give him 1-1 training she did this with an agency nurse. 

She has upskilled and trained many nurses that have worked under her, she is a credit to the nursing profession to both residents and fellow nurses, I would highly recommend her skills and wisdom.
