Monash Health

I enjoy working although on a 'casual basis' at various sites of Monash Health.  The best experience I have had is working at the Nursing and Midwifery department. I undertake general admin. work which include answering of phones, daily management of Basic Life Support (BLS) sessions, arranging of interviews and data entry for the Graduate Nurse Programs, diary management and interacting with the Nursing Educators on daily basis and have gained a deep insight of all aspects of Nursing and Education.  

The staff and management at all the sites were very helpful, caring and there has always been a spirit of comaraderie among staff and management which is to be commended.  

i thoroughly enjoy working at the various sites and its a pleasure to be a part of such a wonderful team.  Personally, I found my job good and probably the hardest part of the job is mastering the IPM (Inpatient management) system due to lack of time but with additional training, I will perfect the job. The most enjoyable part of my job is having the opportunity to interact with staff and management at all levels.

It is a vibrant and busy work place. Having the opportunity to assist people in the community is very satisfying and can be extremely interesting.
I use a security tag to enter into my work space and present to the community through a glass security window.
I open up three different software packages, that allow myself access to all the inpatients across the Monash Health system, including all emergency departments.
I handle inpatient enquires over the phone and at the window.  I assist people with directions to different medical departments and wards.
I work as part of a six member team.
The hardest part of the job is coping with constant deaths, and the emotions of their visitors.
The most enjoyable part of my job is feeling the appreciation from those of us that are at our most vulnerable.

A typical work day at the hospital was busy from the start of the shift to the end; there is a set schedule that must be followed. While following the schedule I would have to assist nurses and interact with patients. Throughout the time I was there I learned the systems of the hospital and how the PSA's fit in and their part in the hospital. The co-workers were very helpful and understand and patient with me. The hardest part of the job is dealing with people who have passed away. The most enjoyable is making the patients happy and seeing them smile and talking to them.

I enjoyed working at Monash Health with the right people around you, one would actually feel as though they were giving back.  Don't do it however if you have family or Children at school there is no flexibility or job security.  People never leave there because they feel it is too hard because it is not but they leave because of the internal people and culture that is created from bad apples who are allowed to exists for way too long.   

A typical day of work experience at Dandenong Hospital would be meeting the University students, suggesting ideas on what to do today, and completing the task that was suggested while learning things on the way. I learned a variety of things, including what the nurses and doctors did, and about the human body. My colleagues were great, we had 10 students attending work experience at Dandenong Hospital and we all got along. The hardest part of the work experience was knowing our way around the hospital. The most enjoyable part was spending time with the hospital patients and the university students.

My jpbs consists of plating , delivery food to patients as well as some cleaning. In the hospital i have learned lots of thing that about food and their importance.
In regards to my co-workers i always make everything possible to get along with them. I always listen and try to understand them and respect thier cultures. I had no problem with my co-workers. We are always working in team.
The hardest part of the job are some heavy duties like pushing trolleys but i make it easy as the job has to be done. The enjoyable part of the job is when i deliver the food i always have a chat to the patient just to make them have some fun.

The staff at Monash health are very friendly and helpful. 

Excellent support from other Allied health staff, nursing and medical.

Would not advise working here if you are a physiotherapist and based at Casey or Dandenong. The manager is very difficult to work with and he does not allow you take ADO or annual leave when you want them. A very toxic environment because of this. This is the only reason I left the organisation, if there was a change in management I would return in a second. Very high turn over of staff because of this, especially Grade 1s

A busy day at work is tremendous with Team work
Learning more about the job
Jobs at it's difference are manageable 
working with a team is very helpful for personal and collective knowledge as work are different
Job can be hard at times when you have to manage by yourself doing different tasks on time having no one around to give some help,it can be harder and late to finish..
The hardest part of the Job can be the most enjoyable part of it as one acquire experience with more knowledge being part of a team in team working which helps a lot and make it enjoyable
