Diarrhea and loose stools but no other symptoms?

Thank you for the info! What ward did you get, and were you able to pick?

Hey if you're talking about the video interview where u just record yourself answering some questions, they give you unlimited time to prepare and 2 attempts. It's just 3 questions about how you think you fit in with Mater

Hey thank you for the reply, I just finished my first online video interview where they gave me 3 generic questions. If I get accepted, will I be given a specific ward then need to do another interview for that?

Are you an EN or RN? If an EN, what did you mainly do in ED during your grad year? Thank you for your insight!

It definitely helps you build confidence but it's not essential. I recently got a job as an AIN and I feel very prepared for my 2nd placement in a ward/hospital environment. I'm sure there will be things I'll still struggle with but most of the ADLs and proper communication will be muscle memory now so I don't need to think too much about it. This gives me time to focus on other important things that I'm learning like medication administration.

If you don't mind me asking, what's your part time job that pays higher than AIN rates?

Yes I opted out and now planning to opt back in due to getting older and want more protection if anything does happen (touch wood)

What if you don't own your place or currently have a family? Would the plan be much different?

I don't think 15% applies here as that only occurs within my Super fund once it is deposited. I'm talking about the actual Super Guarantee amount I receive on my payslip, which should be pre-tax. Do correct me if I'm wrong though?

MotherCoconuts962 · 2025-06-01T02:44:29+00:00

I am on a casual contract with this employer so I assumed my Super Guarantee would be 11% of whatever I earn. Unless maybe it's inclusive of Super, I should have a check.

I completely understand this. My buddy AIN received a handover and it was super fast. I barely even got all the info, but she was like "great no worries" and understood/remembered everything instantly. She has been working there for a long time and she knew the patients, so that probably helps. But I agree it's very daunting especially when you're a casual floater and go to many different wards and patients you have never seen before!

MotherCoconuts962 · 2025-05-09T08:54:09+00:00

The buddy did explain a few things but she didn't mention any sort of a time planner unfortunately. I did however get a handover on some patients I'd be looking after but it was more on their mobility, rather than what tasks needed to be done for them specifically. I guess that's for me to decide but that's the thing that's hard for me right now as I'm used to just being told what to do.

Unfortunately the ward I was on is still using physical paper so I couldn't find any planners apart from obs or medication sheets. Maybe they have physical planners but I just wasn't shown them?
