Mother of dragons. Thankyou
I’m so excited for my nursing degree to start in September
I’ve been working in the field for several years now and it’s the final, most terrifying, step for me.
I’ve always loved this poem
Nah, the most terrifying step is your first shift post registration when you're no longer supernumary ;) You'll do fine mate, if you've worked in the field you know what the job entails and you know what you're letting yourself in for!
The best advice I can give is don't overthink/overstress, just enjoy and don't be afraid to ask for help. Any nursing environment which doesn't foster this or makes you feel stupid for doing so is a toxic environment, its them not you! (I say this after having mixed experiences on placements/in jobs)
I've been in current A&E job for about 3 years now and it doesn't even feel like a job, its like a fun hobby people pay me for :P
@@fromthedumpstertothegrave3689 what sort of stuff do you do in a &e?
@@xkyleprivatex815 So the unhelpful, yet true, answer is 'a bit of everything'. Though predominately its dealing with people 50-80 with medical issues. IE Shortness of breath, chest pain, broken hips. A very small part of A&E is dealing with drunk people who've been scrapping or the stereotypical A&E things.
That said the location of the department plays a big part. An A&E in a town/city centre will see way more of the intoxicated/fights/stab or gunshot wounds than an out of town hospital.
Two pieces of advice DO NOT go to A&E as your first job unless its as a care assistant or they offer a training post. Any department which hires you newly qualified is too desperate for nurses.
Second, if possible avoid an A&E on the outskirts of a trauma/stroke network unless it has a VERY good reputation. If the department is near a major trauma/stroke centre then most of those cases will bypass you. If it IS a major centre then it will (generally) be well equipped. On the outskirts of a network you'll end up seeing trauma/stroke cases that you department often cannot handle. I speak from bitter experience and witnessing very poor care.
@@fromthedumpstertothegrave3689 Is there a reason not to work in a&e staight after qualifying?
@@xkyleprivatex815 Twofold really, 1 as i said A&E's who will hire you straight after qualifying are desperate for staff and are probably not that great to work in full stop let alone as a newly qualified. 2, A&E is a bad place to learn the basics due to volume of patients. 6 Months in a medical assessment unit or fairly acute ward will give you time to grasp the fundamentals way better. And working is waaaay different to doing a placement while training.

Thank you, this means so much
Thank you for this.
This was a really moving. - Nurse
Happy nurses day fellow nurses! - Penny

My dream eak achi nars banne ka and logo ki help kane ka
As a proud exRCN member Happy Day from Toronto Canada. Sorry I left in 1989 but the Government did not want me to draw a private pension until I turned 65. Since then nothing but disdain and misery it seems to UK's great nurses from your Governments.
David I left in 1989 when I was informed I, as a male, couldn’t draw my private pension until age 65. That and bump awards opening sealed it for me. Canada is not utopia but I’ve had a good and fun career here. I took my nurse wife to my old uk hospital. She was shocked. The cafeteria had one tiny banana for breakfast only. No wonder everyone was ill looking. I loved my training and early work but once efficiency and admin booted nursing it was dying
@@LordJasonKing Then you shouldn't be a nurse in the NHS.
@@HuplesCat It's taken me three different hospitals since qualifying in 2013 to find one which has, what I consider, a patient centred ethos and a sensible approach to paperwork (lined paper where you document your care, not a 50 page novella full of tickboxes) and a management culture which while not perfect is responsive to nurse feedback. Actually packed the job in after the first two toxic environments I worked in, but came back because the job itself is just so rewarding.
I'm fortunate third time was the charm and I found a good hospital.
@@LordJasonKing A candid one?
@@LordJasonKing If you've spent 30 years working a job in an institution, which is meant to be rewarding and caring, the biggest regret of your life I can't possibly imagine why you do it.
