Shift times

The NHS Trust I am employed by has recently decided to alter the times of the shifts for no good reason that I can see.

Early shifts are now 07.00-14.30, Lates are 12.30-20.00 and Nights are 19.30-07.30 and these changes are causing all sorts of difficulties from childcare provision through to the timing of the drug rounds.

I was wondering what shift times other people work and what the average cross-over time exists between one shift and the next.

Any imformation would be useful as my union (UNISON) is looking into the issue.

I work in the emergency department and work generally long days which are:

07:45 - 20:00

19:45 - 08:00

roughly around once a month, to make up hours, we work either:

07:45 - 15:00 or

12:30 - 20:00

I rather like it that way :)

We dont have enough staff to cover nights i think as nurses we really dont wanna work nights any more lol:D

i choose to work nights as it fits in with childcare i.e i dont have to have any, but i do work a month of days every three months to keep my skills up as i feel you can go a bit stale if you are on nights permanantly

Thats good for you because the jobs on offer in US by OGP are nights. Out of all of us I am the one who will suffer I think lol I'm not a lover I can do it but rather do days.
