At First Choice Care, we want to celebrate our amazing nurses! So, we will be announcing a nurse of the month, every month. This nurse will be kind, caring and compassionate and be reliable and dedicated to our nursing agency.

Congratulations Holly S. you have been nominated as our nurse of the month for April! Holly is a great worker who communicates with the team, working across both acute & aged care with us.

What do you like most about FCC?

My favourite thing about working with FCC is the flexibility to choose my shifts and hours to fit in around my kids and family life. The allocations team have always worked with me to find suitable places and start times so I can still work without having to stress around day care drop offs etc.

Why did you want to be a nurse?

This question is hard for me to answer. I always wanted to be a nurse, all of my memories as a child were always saying I want to be a nurse, so I don't really know why I wanted to be a nurse, but I love my job. I love people and I find nursing very rewarding.

What has been the highlight of working with FCC?

The highlight of FCC for me is meeting new people and going to new places. I have learned so much from some amazing nurses and some of the facilities I've worked at, and I've made some good friends on the way.

Would you recommend FCC to other nurses and why?

Yes I would and I have!
