Newly graduated nurse Kate Ryan-Wills loved her training so much, she’s pledged to continue her daily commute from Horsham to Stawell.
Kate is one of four nurses at Grampians Health’s Stawell campus, who graduated in 2022, and have decided to continue their careers at Stawell. Three are from Horsham, one is from Melbourne.
“They completed rotations in acute medical and surgical oncology, theatre and district nursing, as well as gaining exposure to our urgent care centre,” GH clinical educator Katie Lovett said.
“They’ve all decided to take permanent work at Grampians Health because they’ve enjoyed their rotations here.
“Usually, we have three graduate nurses each year, but in 2022 it was four which has been amazing.”
Kate said she was thrilled to continue her work.
“I accepted the role at Stawell because the rotations were just what I was wanting and the location was beneficial to me and my family,” she said.
