Doctors working at Flinders?

[malkitek]

Hi,
Much as I love the NHS, or more the people that work in it, it is so much better here as a worker. The RAH ED has a four hour rule, but they have put in a lot of systems to try to make this more reasonable. ( like a TIA rapid assessment clinic soon to be starting when I get my act together!) I do only see it mon to fri daytime but it's busy but quiet and calm.
Can't see how it would be a bad move!
Good Luck,

The pay is better and the work load is much easier here Would rather work in tesco than go back to the NHS even have time to talk to my patients!!! The Doctors on my unit order coffee while reviewing xrays and everyone gets a lunch break I have been spoilt with proper meal breaks and work with people who are not sick and stressed all the time as a result have learnt to enjoy my job again

Have to say that we have just experienced Flinders Emergency department this last Tuesday, after being referred by our Doctor. We arrived at 4.30pm to be told we were the next to be seen as it was quiet. Suddenly Ambulances started arriving 3 by 3, and before we knew it we were deep in patients on stretchers and beds waiting to be seen. We eventually moved through to a cubicle to be seen after about 21/2 hours. To cut a long story short, we had good medical care once it arrived, but were only released at 2.15am the next morning. The staff nurses only appeared to be looking after 4 patients each, but seemed to do quite long shifts, as did the doctors, and all appeared very tired. We would not complain about having to wait, as our problem was not urgent, but I would admit to being very hungry when we left, as we were not sure how long we were expected to be there, and no food was forthcoming.
