Testimonials from current Enrolled Nurses working at the JHH:
1. “When I commenced my career at John Hunter, I was an EN transitioning from an aged care facility. The John Hunter really opened my eyes up to nursing as it introduced me to the acute, vulnerable, time-critical environment which is the nature of this large hospital. I remember the feelings of excitement and curiosity to learn about the different specialties and meet the highly-skilled health care professionals, who I even got the chance to work alongside. Being an EN, I was always supported by a Registered Nurse and I remember thinking how much time the nurses gave me to share their knowledge to ensure that I learnt the specialities that I was working within. I fell in love with the feeling of knowing that I could make a positive impact in these vulnerable patients’ lives, assist with their care and include them in their care to make them feel safe. The thing that stands out to me now as an acting Nurse Unit Manager, is the fact that there is so much incredible opportunity for career development and personal growth when you work in the John Hunter Hospital. The friends I have made here and the people you meet, make it more than just a workplace.” – Michelle Curry (ANUM Staffing Services, Former EEN JHH)
