<h2>Bea Hennessy</h2>
<h3>Balancing work and study while you explore the extensive opportunities available in nursing</h3>
After high school, Beatrice (Bea) Hennessy wanted to work while she explored her career and study options in nursing.
While looking for jobs at her local hospital, she found a role that required a Certificate III in Health Services Assistance. It led her to Box Hill Institute for six months of study.
&ldquo;It was a perfect fit for me. After the first semester, I was ready to start my clinical placement at the Austin Hospital,&rdquo; Bea says. &ldquo;About two months after I completed my certificate, I&rsquo;d been offered two positions there!&rdquo;
Bea started worked in the Paediatric and Adolescent Ward as a Patient Services Assistant as well as in the hospital bank. &ldquo;The bank is a pool of temporary workers available to meet changing staff needs. It meant I could experience different wards and see how a nurse&rsquo;s role can vary.&rdquo;
In 2018, Bea started a Diploma of Nursing at Australian Catholic University while she continued working at the Austin in the Paediatric and Adolescent Ward. &ldquo;I really like the workplace, and it&rsquo;s really helped to talk with the nurses about their different roles.&rdquo;
After completing the first year of her diploma, Bea has put her studies on hold to complete a specialist short course, Operating Theatre Technician course at Box Hill Institute.
&ldquo;I&rsquo;d like to work in theatre for a while, and I need this qualification to do so,&rdquo; Bea explains. &ldquo;I may go back to nursing, but for now, I&rsquo;m going to see where this leads.&rdquo;
