Emma <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A registered nurse and Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS) who graduated from nursing school in 2010.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have spent the majority of the last decade working in one of Victoria’s largest trauma centers. I’ve embraced the pressures of helping critical care patients while battling a rotating roster which as you can imagine is never dull!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whilst working as a CNS I also held the position of Assisted Nurse Unit Manager (ANUM) to further develop my leadership skills and broaden my perspective of how the health system works together.<\/p>\n\n\n

Despite working in the Emergency Department from 2013, I also pick up the odd agency shift, as a means of keeping my ear to the ground regarding the rigors of being called into work at a moment’s notice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’ve ever done agency nursing you’d agree it can be a tough business! What other job expects you to immediately adapt to a new place and perform highly, with very little if any orientation?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve also pushed myself out of the comforts of the ER (I know how totally ridiculous that sounds for some) and held positions as a nursing home supervisor and nursed at a doctor’s clinic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s safe to say, I’m pretty well rounded when it comes to shift work. But in saying that, I’m still keen to learn anything which can make shift work easier!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If I forget about nursing for a second, I’m a true lover of water skiing, basketball, food (of any kind!) and all things chocolate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
