 Thanks x

Was hoping there might be some interest for such a beautiful area and a charity practice- fingers crossed still. Good luck with your studies :)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Yeah I think a lot are struggling for locums. I have locum for 4 years and been to practices that have not had a nurse or been able to find a nurse for over 12 months.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There is a huge shortage. I am actually leaving nursing as well to go back to university in March, it&amp;#39;s a shame really as worked in veterinary 16 years and works so hard for my RVN status but it is what it is unfortunately.&amp;nbsp;&lt;img src="/emoticons/new/Thinking_smiley.gif" alt="Exasperated" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
