Advice to NSW Health on attracting nurses

Lamp, The, July, 2008 by Carol Whatling

I really enjoy the monthly Lamp and am pleased to read that nurses are again fighting for improved wages and conditions.

I particularly agreed with Brett Holmes wanting to make the nursing profession more attractive, to overcome the shortage of experienced nurses and to make night shifts attractive [Page 20, May Lamp].

However, I was slightly amused to read the ad for Drake Medox: Nurses wanted in NSW and the list of reasons to nurse with Drake Medox.

Perhaps NSW Health could take some advice from them?
