Abbie explains how career progression is a focus at SCGH

With a range of nursing opportunities currently available at Sir Charles Gardiner (SCGH) and Osborne Park Hospitals (OPH), Abbie shares what she loves about working as a newly-qualified nurse for the organisation.

After completing her final student placement at SCGH, Abbie was offered a position on the same ward as a newly qualified registered nurse at the beginning of 2024.

"I have received continuous support from the team and really feel this was essential in my career progression," Abbie said.

With guidance of the team, Abbie was able to complete further training such as Hospital Advanced Life Support within her first year of her qualification, which allowed her to obtain crucial skills.

"These opportunities have laid the foundation for my continued professional development and progression towards senior nursing roles within the ward," she said.

"Working at SCGH has not only provided me with diverse professional opportunities, but also the chance to build lasting friendships that I will value for life."

Abbie said SCGH continues to be a place where she feels supported and encouraged to grow both professionally and personally.

SCGH and OPH currently have enrolled and registered nursing positions across a variety of areas and specialities. Find out more and apply at www.scgh.health.wa.gov.au/Work-For-Us/Nursing (external site)
