presently not working, waiting for visa for US, not missing nursing and when I heard this on the news last night gave me no reasons to want to look for temp work

Well, are we really suprised?

Not only are they shaking up our roles, job descriptions, increasing workload and responsibility for the same money, we are expected to survive on money that doesn't match the inflation on most bills! great!

The NHS is running it's nurses on goodwill and has been doing that for years. And as for our lovely nursing unions thinking about taking 'action' about it - that's a first!

Lets face it, nursing is a profession that can help you to travel around the world, but if you are in it for the money ......
- lap dancing may be a better option! (maybe not with my legs tho! )

I think it is disgusting personally...another reason to move to OZ. Not sure it will be better but the days off certainly will be worth it. I am fed up of people saying nurses whinge about their pay but I would like to see some people do our job and realise what we are moaning about...not that we do it for the money eh? It's because we love the job and are caring people......

SAying that moo-cow that's a valid point hun! If it wasnt for my nursing qualification I wouldnt be able to travel the world and not worry aobut getting work so I suppose it isn't so bad
They will be stuffed when we all leave for countries that pay well though wont they? USA pays well according to my dad. He could be wrong though.

USA does pay well, I double my wage but at the moment there are no visas to fast track nurses and waiting could be anything up to 5 years plus current nurse training does not always meet USA requirements
