elective in Perth Australia!?

Hi,

If you are not having any luck with Perth try Melbourne:

Or Brisbane:

Does your prac have to be specifically Paediatric based or are you looking for general ward experience? If you only need General ward experience try SJOG - Murdoch or Subiaco for a place. I know Murdoch has a Scotish Student doing prac there, but it has limited peadiatrics. Contact either of these hospitals via www.sjog.org.au and ask for the undergraduate coordinator. Hope this helps.

If you look on the Ramsayhealth website you will find Joondalup Hospital in Perth. They often take overseas students. Or you can ring them on 08 9400 9400 and ask for the Education Dept. The paeds dept is small and friendly and they have a level 2 Nicu. The hospital is a small general hospital so the paeds should have a good mixture of medical and surgical. The staff there are really great too. Enjoy your prac! When I did mine many years ago I wanted to take home all the babies. Decided I'd better stick to adult nursing!
