Pros: I appreciate the autonomy in planning my routes for home patient visits as a Registered Nurse. It's not a strict 9-5, so I can sometimes adjust my schedule for personal appointments. There are good opportunities for nurses in the expanding home care sector in Singapore.
Cons: Work flexibility really depends on your caseload; sometimes it feels like patient care comes first, which is understandable but tough. Weekend shifts are common, and it's hard to get true remote work options for nursing roles. You often end up with longer days than expected in this healthcare industry.
Advice to Management: Management should explore more creative scheduling options or dedicated support staff to help Registered Nurses better manage their daily routes and reduce burnout. A clearer policy on compensation for overtime in home care would also be beneficial for the team.
