nursing down under

[Guest methuselah]

I'm an RGN looking to emigrate this year. Anyone got experience of hospital working over there? Any particular problems, how much autonomy you get, etc....? And approximate full-time salary for an English equivalent Band 6?

G'day

 

My wife Gillian prefers working here to working in the UK, she mumbles stuff like better working conditions, better money, more respect, better hospital practices, blah, blah, blah.

 

You can find out about wages on the Australian Nurses Federation WA web site.

Thanks for that, Bob. Just the respect bit would be nice.....
