MY CARE HOME EXPERIENCE IN AUSTRALIA AS A REGISTERED NURSE Story time, grab some popcorn🤣🤣🤣 Who send me?? #carehomeexperience #storytime #australianurse
Yesooo... Deo on point! I interviewed an aged care nurse last week but could not pull out the video because there was no voice from them. I will book another interview with him. I think I love their aged care.
Worked in aged care for 2 years and I don’t think there’s much difference between agency nurse and permanent staff, the good thing about being permanent is that you know your patients so that makes it easier. The facility I worked in usually had AIN’s who were competent to give medications so incase you are busy and someone needs medications that can administer they would just call you to give the go ahead. Some facilities are very good, others too can make you cry throughout the shift .
I’ve worked in Aged Care here so I know exactly what you’re talking about 🤣🤣. It’s even worse for AIN staffs. You go do factory work join cos a lot of linens, incontinence aids, towels to arrange all night 🤣
Hmm, this is an eye opener, thanks for sharing boss. Sorry you had to go through that. Now I see why Aged care advertisement is a lot on their job websites.
If you don’t join an agency is that even Nurse Deo… my motivator in this industry 😂 you are shinning oo 😜😜😜😜 I’m loving that for you😚 aha Australia our beloved country making life easier… how can uk have a doctor on ground in a care home in UK😂😂😂😂 when they’re struggling to increase pay and healthcare workers are leaving the country 😂but that’s true people can be in the same country and have different experiences I can say that for sure…As for UK I’m always grateful for my journey so far… I love that you are loving your experience and flowing with the journey love that❤ HAPPY NEW YEAR LOVE💕
Happy New year my love, yes o I'm grateful for the process...honestly, I was shocked seeing a doctor reviewing residents 🤣🤣 it felt like a dream, and the physiosssss dream team!!
Thnks Deo! Cn you try another care home and let us know how it goes? Maybe it was a one off nightmare 😂 but seriously been watching you from your journey converting your license to now you are there
You look gorgeous in red Deo❤️ Wow. Surely no country can have it all right. I'm a bit skeptical now about doing aged care in Aussie. Would you mind doing a vid on aged care assistant experiences and how to go through the entire process if you don't mind? Thanks :)
Ooooh my goodness girl, I am a licensed medication aide at the US, basically I give meds help the RN to do a few minor treatments and all. I am glad I will continue with the same when I land. Sorry for the bad night shift experience. Night shift is the same every where. We have 1 or 2 nurses and 1 medication aide in a facility of 120 residents.
I know… I am so used to doing 35 to 40 residents. As a Medications aide we give meds including narcotics, do a few minor treatments:..it’s not that bad lol
When I saw this, first home was a WOW FACTOR 🤩🤩 but the 2nd one is not too bad, in my aged care we have 61 residents to 1 nurse and only have 2-3 care staffs at night🙃
The experience is the same with the UK! The 'Challenges' varies from one to another. Night shifts with 40 resident is the norm in some carehome in the UK
@NurseDeo It happens, this care home nursing is so dynamic. I have been to an agency night shift that scared me so much. The care facility has 4 buildings in the compound, it was infact like an estate owned by one company. 1 building was the largest and had 4 units inside, the 2nd building was not so big but had 2 units in it. The other 2 buildings has only a single unit each. It was a total of 142 residents that night and Each unit had not less than 22-23residents. The least was a cottage with 16 residents. They have only 3 RNs and 1 Clinical Lead and more Carers as permanent staff. So they keep requesting agency nurses to help cover every week. I resumed that shift and got 35 residents as nursing and the rest residential. Each unit has 1 carer to take care of the residents, total of 8 carers and 1 carer a floater going to Each unit to pair up and assist with heavy turns and care. Then one RN (which is me) 😂😂😂😂 The RN holds the phone 📱 and the keys of each unit medicines locker. The carer in each unit calls if anything happens. That phone kept ringing all night and I kept walking from one unit to another, from one building to another and it was a very cold night. I had so many cases - 3 falls, catheter blockage, so many Insulins to give, 2 were on NG and peg feeding and 3 were on End of Life pathway. I was on my feet all night till morning. I finally made it out alive and refused to ever go back there because it is a lot 😂😂😂😂
Been in Australia exactly 1 year now! I’m casual on both care home and hospital general ward here in Australia! Arrange a video chat with me. I can share my experience
Wow this is beautiful l really love Australia 🇦🇺 God see me true for me to join my hubby 🙏🙏🙏🙏l have this feel soon my visa will be approved in Jesus name Amen Amen
Hie Nurse Deo thank you for the videos. Just a quick question is there much difference in the pay rate between care homes and the hospitals. Like how it is in the UK? 😊

Hi Nurse Deo . M looking to do a course while m doing my registration. I saw a video where you said you did recovery nursing . Which institution did you use .
Hello Nurse Deo,can a diploma holder nurse from Africa work in Aged Care homes in Australia.If yes ,kindly make a video about the process or the requirements on how to become an Aged care
I was thinking it’s a different way for midwifes moving to Australia because it’s mostly nurses I see on here on RU-vid but thanks 😅for your reply I now understand what you mean
