Some employers have offered me work at the very bottom of the pay scale as I have been out of the NHS for 4 years. It is so rubbish I have worked as a nurse for 10 years, so dissapointed and let down with the NHS. It really is know wonder staff are leaving rapidly. However, has anybody felt like this and if so what did they do? We have children, some didn't want to come back and would happily go back tomorow. Any suggestions?
Hi there,

We dont know what made you come back to the UK but it must have been something serious to make such a drastic move,

all I can offer is that you only get one kick at this game, have a vote with the family and base your decision on that but maybe set some parameters and goals, it can only be your decision and I am sure you will know what is right

good luck with what ever you decide
