Kate Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 Hi, I'll be joining my OH in September with the children. Although I won't be looking for work straight away I would like to work part-time once we have settled in. I work as a hospital play specialist here. I wondered if there is much work out there in this area?? I think this role may be call 'child life specialist' within the paediatrics wards/hospitals??? can anyone offer any info???? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 Not heard of the role Kate - perhaps contact PMH (our childrens hospital). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StraighttothePoint Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 It appears that 'child life specialist' is possibly more a US term? Looks like the term used here is the same as your own currently. As Ali says e-mail the Princess Margaret hospital direct and see if you get any replies. Apart from that these links should get you started http://www.aahps.org.au/index.php and www.facebook.com/aahps Also here is the WA government website with jobs http://www.jobs.health.wa.gov.au/page.php?pageID=215 and the commonly used Seek site http://www.seek.com.au/healthcare-jobs/in-perth Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
