Re: Queensland Ambulance Service

I wouldn't take the "crap" comment to personally as QAS ICP rashford boys club think everyone is crap. The medical directors office really has played a large part in QAS' recent decline IMO. Many...

Re: Queensland Ambulance Service

Don't you believe it judging by how many shifts can't be covered. Q6 and Brisbane are understaffed, we have had rucks of people leaving since the new style of management came in.

Re: Queensland Ambulance Service

I wouldn't join anyone until you get here.

There is also an association called EMSPA who act for ambulance officers here. There is great rivalry between the two mobs and lots of bad feeling.

Re: Queensland Ambulance Service

On the coalface everyone is p*ssed off, we are the worst paid ambos in Oz and the leadership shown in upper QAS is poor and borders on aggressive.

Re: Queensland Ambulance Service

I bet this isn't right. Your Tech should count as experience, since the original two recruiters have moved onto other things the recruitment process has gone t*ts up.

Re: Queensland Ambulance Service

Name and shame these bullies.

Anyone passes AND there is an overabundance of cocky newly-qualified officers who know everything and roll their eyes if you suggest another way of doing things or criticise QAS.

Re: Queensland Ambulance Service

From expats forums I understand that you are not comitted to any employer as you gain permanent residency as soon as you arrive.

Re: Queensland Ambulance Service

True but the point is that we shouldn't need to do this to live. QAS are still telling the latest induction they can expect 77k. QAS pay less than all of the other states in Australia.

Re: Queensland Ambulance Service

SA do pay more than QAS, they have some UK managers now I hear.
