Ramsay Health Care
Are there any nurses on this site who work for one of the many private hospitals run by Ramsay Health Care? If so how do you find them? I'm currently a cardiothoracic nurse employed by the NHS and am planning to emigrate within the next 18nths. A friend (also a nurse) has recommended them to me as she worked for them whilst living in Sydney. They apparently treat their staff well and have high standards of care. We are looking to go to melbourne and I have discovered that they have numerous hospitals there, one of which has cardiothoracics as a specialty.
Another friend who is nursing on NZ has told me that a lot of private hospitals close over the Christmas period - something that is of course a very attractive thing for me as I have young children now and am a bit fed up of having to work either crimbo or new yr every year. I'm unsure how this works as where on earth do the poor patients go? Surely it can't be guaranteed that they're all going to have recovered from whatever surgery they've had in time to be discharged before Christmas?? Anyway, apologies for waffling, I am just interested to hear of anyone who has experience of working for this company. Thank you! Saff |

Is there nothing that Gordon Ramsay cannot do?

Re: Ramsay Health Care
My missus has worked for Ramsay, for just over a couple of years now.
She's never had any real problems and has maintained that working over here is much better than working for the NHS. Not sure if that is down to working for Ramsay, or just nursing in Aus being better???? Not sure where the Christmas thing comes from though? her hospital is certainly open over the holidays. |
Re: Ramsay Health Care
Personally wouldn't recommend working for Ramsay! Not on the Gold Coast anyway.

Re: Ramsay Health Care
Hi
I work for them but only as a student nurse here in Perth, so I don't get paid. There are a lot of UK people working there, who say its much better than NHS, but I certainly wont be working there when I graduate, I preferred my training time in the NHS when I was a student nurse there. |
