We have recently launched the new Wellington ICU website. The new design is focussed on providing more information to patients, whānau and family about what we do, how you can contact us, where to find us, and who is looking after you. wellingtonicu.com
Another #wicm course done. Thanks to the amazing organizing team from @WellingtonICU for putting together the premier @CICMANZ final exam prep course. Looking forward to next year already. 😎
@mark_smitheram That whole thread is from a consultant in New Zealand who is originally from Birmingham, describing first hand how much better his T&Cs are out there. I think that’s fair due diligence.
@psirides @WellingtonICU That is certainly the end of an era. Give Siggie a hug from me.
@psirides @WellingtonICU Wow, That's amazing service. She was also really lovely to work with during my time at Cap Coast. If you can pass on my best wishes that would be great.
My boss trying to find other nice things to say about NZ after he sees the pride I have over Dermnet and Toxinz: “Oh wonderful! You’re from NZ! They have… great sheep!” 🥲
@WellingtonICU Also happy to be involved in anything paediatric in the future @KateTietjens. I can use it as an excuse to visit Wellington.
@WellingtonICU Never even visited NZ before, but the inclusion of a baking roster and quantity of sim makes me want to go to med school to come over.
@WellingtonICU Would love to add some psychiatry and addiction medicine to your teaching, but it’s such a full programme I’m not sure where!
Over and out @WellingtonICU thanks for having me. A great unit with great people if anyone is interested in working there. Im going back to paeds land next and I’m a little bit excited by that.
@psirides @WellingtonICU Good to see things finally changing. Many Kiwi nurses work over here because thay pay disparity is, or has been, so significant.
In case any health care professionals I know want to escape & come to NZ - it’s not all bad here - immigration has loosened up.
If you’ve ever considered working in New Zealand as a nurse or doctor or in any other allied healthcare role, there has never been a better time. Immigration assistance, relocation, registration. All in one place: somewheredifferent.co.nz
#RICU Bake off today Possibly even good enough to rival @WellingtonICU baking standards 🤔 Winner at end of 🧵 Entries included : Pressure ulcer prevention cupcakes
