 I am just wanting to get a general feel for how everyone is paid for being on call. I work in a small, 1 vet practice in Jersey and I am the only qualified nurse. We have a nursing assistant here also and the on-call rota is one week on and</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 10</generator><item><title>Re: On call pay</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/144589?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 25 Jul 2013 23:22:33 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:44d8b683-2372-4121-9fb1-450a16a3324e</guid><dc:creator>miss jack rat</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Jennifer! i didn&amp;#39;t know you were on here :)

We also have to work the day before and the day after a night duty.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: On call pay</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/144576?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 25 Jul 2013 15:37:26 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:7e36bc08-8814-4961-9246-0448a88dfed4</guid><dc:creator>Aimee Barber</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I work in a small referral centre, bit like you 2 nurses and we have a casual arrangement that one of us will be free. so if im away a weekend or have a party or something she will be free and visa versa. with drinking and thing s I don&amp;#39;t ever get over the top so have said in the past (like on my hen do) you can call me but you&amp;#39;ll have to pick me up&amp;nbsp; &lt;img src="http://www.vetnurse.co.uk/emoticons/new/Very_happy_smiley.png" alt="Big Smile" /&gt; as I said just too many to drive not do work. Also as a cardiologist the chances of being called out are very slim let alone doing an anaesthetic (been called out 2 times in 2.5years)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;pay wise we get time and a half or time in lew back, up to us and normally I include my travel time in that (within reason)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;if your not happy I would say to speak to your boss about it and maybe ask for more of a casual arrangement, or the small fee for being free sounds good.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: On call pay</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/144527?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 24 Jul 2013 13:00:22 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:895f7696-0235-4387-89fe-40590ab14522</guid><dc:creator>lizabarf</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi we get £20 for being on call and time and a half if we get called in and double time after midnight x&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
