Why am I in temporary employment as a nurse?

One aspect of temporary work that should not be underestimated is the often more attractive remuneration compared to permanent employment. Many temporary employment agencies also offer interesting additional benefits such as reimbursement of travel expenses or extensive training opportunities. These factors make temporary work not only financially attractive, but also support my professional development.

Support and security

Contrary to the widespread assumption that personnel services – as they are also known today – are insecure, I experience support and stability on a daily basis. My personnel consultant takes care of the scheduling for me and always has a suitable solution ready – even in difficult times. This reliable support gives me a feeling of security and backing. I particularly like the appreciative gestures on birthdays and other holidays. You don’t get that so often these days.

Contributing to the quality of care

As a temporary worker, I help to bridge staff shortages in clinics and care facilities. My experience from various assignments enables me to react flexibly to different situations and bring in new perspectives. I also get to know new colleagues and learn a lot about the different approaches of healthcare facilities.

Mastering challenges

Of course, temporary work also brings challenges. The frequent changes in assignments require a high degree of adaptability. However, I see these challenges as an opportunity for personal and professional development and am happy to take advantage of them.

Conclusion and outlook

For me, the advantages of temporary work in nursing clearly outweigh the disadvantages. The flexibility, the wide range of experience opportunities, the attractive remuneration and the support offered make this form of employment extremely attractive. I am convinced that temporary work can make an important contribution to overcoming the challenges in the care sector, because for me, temporary work is a modern and different form of employment in the care sector.
