Re: return to nursing
Hi Scampie,
I don't know about other states, but if you are interested in working in NSW, they have a re-entry programme for nurses, called 'Re-Connect' (or 'Midwifery Connect for midwives). Details can be found here http://www.health.nsw.gov.au/nursing/reconnect.html
I know of a nurse who had 30 years away from the job, and then 're-connected' and it seemed to work well for her.
Hope this helps.
