well to be perfectly honest i have worked for the nhs as an anaesthetic technician for 16 years, and quite frankly i love it, no 2 days are the same, i earn 25k a year, i get 8 weeks annual leave a year, i work with a great team, term time contracts are available for staff that need them, i feel worthwhile in my job, will never be unemployed and pretty much have the flexibility to work in any city in the uk i choose.
we deliver top quality care to patients irrespective of financial restraints.
one person said to me that the nhs is bleeding the country dry, however i feel the country is bleeding the nhs dry.
i could think of worse paid, undervalued, non stable jobs than the one i have.
