I'm an ICU nurse in Central Scotland. I'm considering leaving my job and doing agency nursing. I have a lot of critical care experience, including experience abroad. I have a lot of courses. I drive and I'm prepared to travel for shifts. Money IS very important to me. I'm sick of being relatively unrewarded as an E Grade. I don't want to move onwards and upwards, I "just" want to give excellent care to critically ill patients and get good money for doing it.
What do you think of that? Do you think it would be a crazy risk to give up a dependable NHS income? Full-time critical care agency nurses, if you are flexible do you get enough work?
