Jody Downs

RN in Ward


“I just like the flexibility. I work three days a week - some weeks more, some fewer, just depending on what my commitments are and what the ward needs. You feel that the hospital is not too big and that you know everyone. But it’s not that there’s never any change – for instance, I’d been working at Bowen as a midwife, and when the post-natal unit closed, I made the transition into surgical nursing.”
