Robyn has provided us with an amazing interview below! Check it out:
What do you like most about FCC?
It can be hard to choose just one reason but one of the things I like most about FCC is how consistently connected they are to their nurses. There is never a time while on contract that I feel unsupported or isolated and they are genuinely passionate about making sure that I am valued and heard. Whether it’s Easter, Christmas, birthdays or any other special occasions that I’m on contract they always let me know that while my own family may be a long way from wherever I am, I still have my work family looking after me. Not just a bit, every single time!
Why did you want to be a nurse?
I have had a number of different career paths in my lifetime; from fitness to aviation and just about everything in between.
I became a nurse because I wanted to do something by which I could make a contribution in, not only my community but also my family. The question we ask children about “ what do you want to do when you grow up?” for me while my answer was seated in what a kind, generous, well respected and community revered role it appeared to be to say “Nurse” kind of just fell out of my enthusiastic child’s brain and never entered it until a very much family member suffered a devastating stroke that “to be a nurse” changed both our lives. I watched the nursing team show knowledge, skill and just as importantly compassionate care that made such a positive impact on my whole family that I decided I wanted to learn the same and hopefully give some of the same back.
What has been the highlight of working with FCC?
The highlights of working for FCC have been many. The new adventures each contract brings, the opportunities to meet new people who have similar interests and sharing those adventures with new friends who become old friends who also become the same friends I recommend my agency with.
Would you recommend FCC to other nurses and why?
Of course!!! Two of them are now on contract with me in Lismore!! I always tell people who I’m signed up with because I’m really proud to belong to such an amazing team.
