[@frootloops3605]

Hi Pawan, can nurses/student nurses usually choose their shifts or is it assigned non-negotiable?

[@2ndchancehypnotherapy]

Generally not.

[@PawanSandhuPS]

Hi there, Student nurses are given their placement blocks by the university, and usually are not negotiable but they can move some of the blocks around depending upon the availability, if you'd have a legitimate reason. Once you are fully qualified and working as a nurse, you can negotiate your roster to some degree with your manager in most cases :)

[@payalrana4247]

Hi Pawan Could you please tell me Do you get paid by university during clinical placement...?

[@PawanSandhuPS]

Hi there, Unfortunately Clinical Placements aren't paid, however you can choose to work as a nursing student in various settings, while studying Nursing :)

[@payalrana4247]

@@PawanSandhuPS thankyou pawan

[@anniebear5817]

Hi Can’t you choose just to be a day shift nurse or night shift nurse ?

[@PawanSandhuPS]

Hi There are some healthcare facilities that close during the night, so for someone who doesn't enjoy staying up all night, can choose to work there instead of lets say hospitals. Even in hospitals, some nurses choose to just work night shifts as it suits there lifestyle better and in that case it just comes down to your managers, whether they approve such requests or not. I hope this helps :)

Hi please replyyy

[@nutanguranagoudr4332]

Is it night duty is compulsory or optional??

[@malithnoob]

No

[@jenisvarghese2012]

we cannot fully avoid night shift

[@PawanSandhuPS]

Hi there You might have to work some night shifts if there aren't many people putting their hand up for it, just to make it fair to everyone, managers usually ask everyone to work their share of nights :)
