    I work in Rural Western Australia about 600kms east of Perth, in the goldfields. I am a Hospital Coordinator. We have 120beds but due to staffing issues use about 90. We have paeds, med/surg, maternity, high dependency, restorative care, OT, day surg, clinics, x-ray and ED. My speciality is ED so I love getting stuck down there, hands on whenever I can. In March we are planning on opening a 6 bed psych unit.

    I just started Home Health Care. I miss the Picu and Adult ICC/CCU. I miss the back up of RT, and having other Nurses to hanbounce ideas off of. I think I will learn to like the independance. I hate the rising gas prices as all of my cases are twenty plus miles from where I live. Thank goodness I finally got a job, with the "Nursing shortage" No one was hiring. Weird Huh? :spin:

    I worked in Long term care for 18 years, tried hospital nursing for three and a half years and hated it, returned to long term care. Unable to work now d/t failed back syndrome. Miss it horribly. When in LTC worked as floor nurse, DNS, charge nurse and finally as MDS nurse.
