Petals Posted May 9, 2011 Posted May 9, 2011 Welcome to the site I think that nurses seem to be processed quite quickly as there is a shortage of skilled nurses here. I live on the Mornington Peninsula along with many other Brits and there is a lot of information in the Victoria forum and more particularly the suburbs sub forum. Mornington, Mount Martha, Mount Eliza, Frankston South, Somerville, Tyabb etc all areas. Thehttp://www.southernhealth.org.au/ Mornington Peninsula is positioned between two bays Port Phillip Bay and Westernport Bay and the Port Phillip side is more densely populated than the Westernport side where I live. We have a train link on the Westernport side but its buses only on the Port Phillip side. Frankston Hospital is usually looking for midwives and nurses and they just upgraded the maternity area of the hospital. http://www.southernhealth.org.au/ is the web site for the area and will give you all the information you need. Some of the Private Hospitals also need nursing staff and you might look at Peninsula Private Hospital, Beleura Hospital and The Bays at Mornington. Good luck
