@AntSpeaks If you read the letter he shows in the video, it states that they needed to switch to a smaller plane so it was overbooked.

@Canaan1984 @anaesthetic_spr Uk nurses are trained to do all of that 84marty. In 2018 the Nursing and Midwifery Council published new standards that include cannulation, male catheterisation, IV’s and a whole host of other things pre registration. The other things have been standard practice for years.

Four years ago, Mo’s life changed forever when an accident left him paralysed.

Now, he’s the first paralysed surgeon in England.

Watch how thanks to his own dedication, the adjustments made by his team and his hydraulic wheelchair, he’s back doing what he loves. 💙

@xcurlytwigx @credland_nicki Parents income was a key factor and assumed they would help out ….. but often despite a ‘good’ household income they weren’t able to help as that money was needed for their own mortgage / living costs etc. 2/2

@xcurlytwigx @credland_nicki I agree and it’s a shame that it puts people off, so am all for affordable alternatives. I can think of lots of students who struggled on a diploma bursary though, they couldn’t get a big enough student loan to survive as they weren’t viewed the same way as other students. 1/2

[Michelle Cowen 💙 @CowenMichelle]

@xcurlytwigx @credland_nicki There are a variety of routes, NA top up, apprenticeship etc that are potentially cheaper BUT the full degree level registration is paramount. Research from around the world show that patient morbidity and mortality are lower when nurses are educated to degree level. 1/2

@KaleyBeatty Hi Kaley, so will I, although I think we can all predict them. Having the evidence helps strengthen the case though.
