Abstract
The experience of nursing in Saudi Arabia has brought mixed reactions from Australian nurses. Some are shocked by the conditions they found in the local hospitals and the restrictions on women's lives which apply to them as well. For others, Saudi offers the chance to earn a high income, travel easily and extensively and experience a unique ancient culture. Conditions can often be very different from those cultured in nursing contracts, so the principle caveat interior, buyer beware, should be your guide. Here two nurses recount their own experiences of nursing Saudi style.
