I don't work there, but I know it's well thought of. It's a private hospital. It's in North Adelaide in a very residential part near the parklands and a bus goes right past it. Sorry can't tell you any more. Most people I know have only used the maternity section.

Hi Linsey,
I would love to hear some informatin about the Calvery, I am starting work there hopefully by mid May, waiting for our 457 visa. My family and I are moving from the far north of Scotland. Really looking forward to getting there and getting started.
Cheers, Jane.:)

Hiya Lindsey.
Could ask hubby what the pay scales are like.
Missus has been in theaters for about 12 years, last 9 in Derriford in Plymouth and still kinda sain.

Hi there I really enjoy working there. I'm at Wakefield Calvery working on ICU. My manager is the best I've ever worked for and can't speak highly enough of the staff I work with. We often pick patients up from theatre and they are always very friendly. We have a very active social scene on the unit and go out on works events quite often. Your wifes hourly rate will be (assuming that shes level1 yr 9) $29.61hr with a 4% pay rise in January09 then a 6% rise in Jan 10 taking her hourly rate to $32.64 plus unsocial hours. If you've got anymore questions just send me a pm and I'll be happy to help.
