You dont get the finer points of what I posted, because you arent in the trade, but she will, when she gets here.....
Just talking to the wife, she says she does all the things you mention, bed baths, cleaning folk up who have messed themselves, emptying bed pans, making beds, etc, etc, she says it's all hands to the pump and sick rates from stress and exhaustion are really high. I think it's clear it's similar, unless someone knows a hospital somewhere in Australia that's not as bad as this, maybe that's the way to go, does anyone have any knowledge of any hospital that's worth recommending? |

And you wont know the true worth of that until you are here. |

So you basically want a hospital that is the exception rather than the rule?
Better than nothing I suppose. :D Anyone know what the Royal Perth and Charles Gardener are like? |

Which bit of this don't you get - the work experiences Eddie has described is typical of Aussie hospitals, its not specific to one.
It's like my wife who works at the new hospital in Halifax West Yorkshire, making out she knows exactly what it's like in St Jimmys in Leeds? Or are we saying that my wife's experience of how horrendously crap it is in Halifax is the same as every hospital in the UK? |

In which case you might like to post a thread naming the specific hospital you want the inside scoop on, and not a general thread about nursing in Australia....

Its nearly midnight and I have a hot date at 0830 in the city:zzz: I think your right. :thumbup: Is there any nurses currently working at the Royal Perth or Charles Gardener hospital, who can tell me what it is like?

Re: Nursing in Australia.
Im sure someone will come along soon and tell you exactly what you want to hear and then you will be happy. I dont care that that you said you want to hear the good and the bad because you clearly dont want to hear the bad or as we call it the reality. Surely by now you have to believe that it really is the same shit in a sunnier bucket ?
I am not a nurse but we lived opposite one and were friends with others and we saw over the 12 years we were there what was happening. I understand you want it to be better but really why should it be ? |

I understand you want it to be better but really why should it be ? Why you feel you have to get involved in this topic when you know nothing about it I don't know, not that I'm interested in anything you say, so far my wife's cousins who work at the Royal Perth and several others she has contact with there and Sir Charles Gardener, think its a bit better there, maybe the wife's cousins are saying that to get her to work there, I don't know, but so far no one on this thread has worked at either place unless I am mistaken, hopefully someone will post soon, with factual information of either hospital. |
