Salary at Ramsay Health Care

As a second-year nurse I feel underpaid.

I think staff should be paid when we have to go over our shift finish time because if handover/riskmans/patient loads that require more time.

Quite poor considering the amount of work you are asked to do.

The pay is terrible. Not only do staff work to the max, but they are not even rewarded for the work they do. Inflation is high, we work all the time to what use?

I get paid less from my previous work.

The salary should be higher or at least equal to regular staffs as grads get the same amount of patient load and this is without supervision. No bonuses, and I don't get rostered on public holidays.

Could have more

Who doesn't want more pay?! It is human nature. Some shifts I really earn my money and others I feel I earned my money very easily. Every day is so different. There are no bonuses that I know of.

We are not given any pay rise or bonuses by ramsay. Compared to other healthcare facilities and the public system this is shocking. Especially considering the hard work we put into our jobs and the outcomes that are achieved at the hospital.

As nurses we are worked much harder than in the public system. We have higher patient to nurse ratios and yet get paid less than the nurses in public. It is disgusting. There are no bonuses.

I believe we should be on the same as other hospitals mainly public pay rates. We should be on the same

They rate of pay is far too little compared to the work we do as Enrolled nurses, mostly we perform same duties as Registered Nurses. The only difference is not being able to carry S8 keys ans cannot initiate medication. Our rate is same as carer's rate in nursing homes

Wish I was paid more

Never heard of bonuses

We don't get bonuses and our EBA hasn't been renewed for 4 years.

I am very satisfied.

Compared to QLD health our pay is very low. The company doesn't offer any bonuses. I

The pay is pretty great with the new pay rise but rather than pizza parties and food as bonuses or coffee shop vouchers, I would prefer a pay bonus for our hard work.

the pay is satisfactory, could be better, but it is only a starting salary in the role. it would be nice if there were bonuses or extra money if you have worked hard.

Good pay for someone my age but I understand that it doesn't rise much over time. No salary packaging also.

We get given a morning tea for a thank you for doing well in our audits. That is the only thanks other than 1 cheesecake on international nurses day for the entire ward. The hospital has tried to boost morale with a clown doing balloon animals going around to wards however this did not go over well as all wards were severely understaffed and struggling so it felt like a massive insult

Free food occasionally.

Sometimes we get free dinners / meals. Sometimes we get gift cards for best employee of the month.

Free coffee voucher for your birthday.

Movie tickets are sometimes given when picking up extra shifts. Able to take extended unpaid leave if necessary. There is also a fitness passport coming soon.

There are no perks that I am aware of or use.

None of this.

The best perk is that we are part of MyFitness Passport. Also, occasionally we are given a coffee card to get a coffe and a sweet treat from the cafe.

Free parking

Money off hospital stay.

Free parking. Free morning tea, toast and coffee machine at work.

Myer vouchers for doing extra shifts are nice. I would like to see superannuation, car, and laptop salary sacrifices come into effect as Queensland Health does.

Only salary sacrifice I believe would be a perk

Private health insurance

Parking

Free parking and free meals at work.

Generous leave policies, private health insurance and free parking permit.

Private health insurance and some deals with specific care dealerships like Mazda.

Nothing, we don't get any of this.

Ramsay as a private company are lacking in the salary packaging perks available in public hospitals. The leave policy sounds great but I don't see the advantage of paying for additional leave - you might as well take leave without pay. Free parking at the moment is the best benefit but I expect that this will end soon and parking will go back to being $40+ a day. The private health insurance benefit only benefits you if you have high levels of cover anyway. You don't chose to work at Ramsay for any of the perks - that's for sure.
