RDN's... Come and join me at Smile Locum so I can get a day off once in a while, so busy!
What do I enjoy about my job?
I get to meet really interesting people and I can honestly say I learn something new every day!
I am fortunate enough to travel all over Devon, Somerset, Dorset, Cornwall which, in my opinion, is the most stunning part of the UK.
I don't get involved in any practice politics, I go to work, do my job to the best of my ability, come home and forget about it- no stress!
Staff at practices are normally really grateful that you're there to help them and make you feel really appreciated and welcome.
I am well paid.
I have flexibility in my hours, I can choose when I want to work.
I've been doing this for 19 months and I've never once thought "I'm bored of this job" if you know me well enough, you'll know that's not like me at all!
The experience I've gained is literally invaluable!
Yes, my first few jobs were nerve-wracking but you just push through don't you! It's totally worth it, I promise.
Paula, Locum Nurse
