Nurse Recruitment - National Joke

galway2007

Australia is take them and regards Irish nurses as of a very high standard
They start on €30 k a year and get the following shift premium
10% for working 10am to 1 pm
12.5% for working 1pm to 4pm
15% for working 4 pm to 4am
Time and half for working weekends
Time and three quarters for Sundays
They don’t have to put up with the social issues that are in Ireland and best of all they have a better standard of living and the sun
So all nurses should give the 2 fingers to HARNEY and the Irish people and head to oz

The sacred cows wont be the ones on the way out Bob as you know. The whole point is up to recently there was plenty of people willing to replace the older higher paid "dead wood" nurses. Unfortunately when the dust eventually settles in post apocalyptic ireland, there actually wont be anyone to replace the ones who have retired on their lump sums and pensions. We are already gone.

I've not gone through this thread, but it seems the most apt place to post this.

I am absolutely speechless at this ad. On so many levels. SO many levels.Christ, can someone please just pull that whole organisation to bits? It's an absolute shambles.Give me a month to sort the HSE, and I'd go through the whole lot of them so fast they wouldn't know whether they were standing or sitting. It makes me so angry.

Didn't something like that already happen, and they brought in a load of Filipino nurses?

Spot on! At on stage we had 5000 Filipino and 5000 India Nurses working here, a large amount remain today. Cant really blame them they held the services together for a few years. It just highlight the lack of insight and forward planning in our health and education services.

At least the greeks will feel at home with our shambolic nation, considering their own mess of an ecomomy

I am not quite sure what your problem is with this ad. This is a private company trying to recruit doctors. Of course they will say they have a wide variety of jobs available. That does not mean they actually do. Look at every recruitment agency, for whatever job. All of them will say they have jobs to fill. You can take it for granted they are all lying. The reason CPL are trying to recruit in Greece is so they can offer them cheap wages.

I hear the HSE are going to bring in a scrappage deal to cope with our ageing population, need less nursing staff then I'd imagine.:p

A Civil engineer would use all the same mathematics as a chemical engineer, he would need to train in the chemical sepcific elements (sorry, bad pun) of the new job, but would be better than a fresh chemical engineering graduate as his knowledge of civils would likely be quite useful in chemical engineering, design of chemical plant etc.

Similarly...

I would of course expect a RGN to be able to accept whatever specialised training they might need to work in mental health, but I can't accept that the knowledge of medicine an RGN would bring to the new job would be outweighed by a freshly qualified graduate and it would save on the cost of an extra employee and would add to the RGNs capabilities. I see no downside other than requiring fewer nurses.

I love how everybody outside the health service thinks they know why the whole health system is wrong an imply that if they were in charge they would (obviously!) do an better job.
Yes, the budget pours money into the health service every year and it seems like a waste, perhaps it is not efficiently being managed as well as it could be but hey? who gives a s***t?! where would we be with out our health? there would be little reason for investment in infrastructure or foreign investment if we were all sick and dying. This is a very extreme example but nobody realizes why we need a health care system until they or a close relative gets sick.
i have a problem with the claim that Ireland is 'over nursed'! such a comment, you would know well that you have never had the displeasure of being in hospital recently; visiting or as a patient. i would kindly thank you to revoke that statement until such a date in which you can validate it with relevant experience/knowledge! :eek:

ps. MRSA and other Hospital acquired infections are not as a result of uncleanliness or (nurses fault) they are as a result of resistant strains bacteria and viruses from over prescribing of antibiotics! id like to see public opinion if they decided to bring nuns, back there would be uproar!

I thought nurses did it as a calling/vocation.I didn't realise they were just another group of hired gun professionals and isn,t Harney gone a while now.Shouldn,t it be 2 fingers to O'Reilly.

Please don't drag up threads that are a year old to make an argument against a person in the thread. There's no guarantee they even still post on here or care about the issue or even hold the same view anymore.

Harney was in charge of HSE when thread started, look at the OP date.
