KNIGHTSBRIDGE, UNITED KINGDOM -- (Marketwire) -- 04/14/09 -- Specialist nursing agency Health Professionals is bringing its Registered Nurse Recruitment Road Shows "down under".

The RN Road Shows will span Sydney, Perth, Brisbane and Melbourne in Australia between 23rd April to 8th May, before moving on to Auckland and Wellington, New Zealand, in mid-May. Attending RNs wishing to work temporarily overseas will get the opportunity to see what educational roles are available for specialist nurses working in the UK and Ireland.

Specialist Nurse Coordinator and RN, Eamonn Donnelly says: "At Health Professionals we've a reputation for offering nursing jobs which are excitingly different. For overseas nurses, the experience they gain in the UK, will enrich and enhance the healthcare organisations they work for when they return home.

"RNs will get the chance to work in some of the UK and Ireland's most prestigious healthcare institutions and teaching hospitals. Or perhaps progress their careers with exciting roles in critical care, A/E, theatres, med/surg nursing, oncology and homecare.

Permanent and temporary roles have high-earning potential, and in many cases, assignments offer free accommodation with no associated bills."
