Re: Nights
Call your establishment straight away - normally someone will/want to give up a week of nights if you ask. You’ll do 7 on and get 7 off. It’s 11hr shifts - you’ll have to do inundation and fire hood as a priority on training if not already in.
Depends: I got on a dedicated night team as no one wanted to work them.

Even with earplugs you can still hear
Re: Nights
Is it easy enough to get a week of nights off someone? The 7 days off is quite appealing to jet off for a few days.
Re: Nights
Really easy!! I started this week and was told people give them up

Re: Nights
Quick question- he nights.
I read if you do a week of nights you then get 7 days off the following week...are you paid for the week you are off?

Re: Nights
I thought that was how it worked
Because you're basically doing 2 weeks work in 1 week

Re: Nights
People at my establishment will love me because I’ll do it every other month or so, wouldn’t want it permanently like but now and then would be alright.
Re: Nights
I'd happily be on permanent nights. I've always worked a range of shifts and find I get more time with my kids when I'm on nights!
I'm going to speak with my mentor when I start and just let her know I'm more than happy for the night shifts.
