I haven't been on social media much lately, but the past few days, I've been able to get back to doing some of the work I love the most!

I've loved having the latest bunch of #StudentNurses working with us. In 12 weeks they've achieved so much and now they are all qualifying and starting the next step in their careers.

It's been amazing getting to know them all x

1 of the best bits of my job is the hands on training. These wonderful ladies are part of the admin team at Throckley & we have signed them off as phlebotomists after finishing their training. I love helping people find career development in #GeneralPractice 🥰 @NewcastleGPs

[JoannaPracticeNurse @JVintis]

As always, I am so grateful to work with amazing #PracticeNurses who really value the work we do to support #StudentNurses in #GeneralPractice. We have to make sure the next generation feel empowered at the beginning of their careers! #ProudPracticeNurse

It's great to have had our MP @ChiOnwurah in our office today. The work the @NewcastleGPs team do is incredible, and I feel so lucky to be part of it! The nurse led research that is happening is mindblowing. #ProudPracticeNurse #PrimaryCare

[Chi Onwurah 💙 @ChiOnwurah]

A great visit to @NewcastleGPs to celebrate their 10th anniversary of voicing the priorities in primary care across Newcastle.

I had the most amazing day. I am incredibly proud to say I am a #QueensNurse. I met some incredible people & cannot wait to see what the future holds, onwards and upwards! @johnunsworth10 @TheQNI #ProudPracticeNurse

[JoannaPracticeNurse @JVintis]

I never wanted to be a #PracticeNurse. It wasn't something I'd ever considered as a job. So, how did I end up doing it as a newly qualified nurse?

Part 4 of my nursing story: I realised very quickly that I didn't enjoy working in the hospital. Everything I was being taught was based in the hospital, & it was very daunting.

I wish I had been able to experience nursing placements outside of the hospital. #ProudPracticeNurse

[JoannaPracticeNurse @JVintis]

Tonight, I wanted to share talk about what impacted my life before I started my nurse training. Having 3 of the biggest life events in 3 months: one of the worst, one of the best, and one of the most stressful! Nurse training should be easy after that, right? #ProudPracticeNurse

[JoannaPracticeNurse @JVintis]

@louisebrady17 We keep following your lead! Now more than ever the next generation of nurses need our support so we will keep going 💪

[JoannaPracticeNurse @JVintis]

I am incredibly proud to be a nurse but I never thought I would be one when I was younger.

I always like to reflect with #StudentNurses about the different routes into #Nursing! Everyone has their own journey. #ProudPracticeNurse

[JoannaPracticeNurse @JVintis]

@louisebrady17 Aww, thank you, Louise! 😊 I love hearing from students who have always dreamed of being nurses and seeing them achieve it, but I think being unsure about it early on in my career keeps me driven to help people find their passion in nursing 🥰

[JoannaPracticeNurse @JVintis]

@TheLittleNurse1 @PCnursePioneers Thank you! I'm really excited to attend and meet lots of fabulous nurses 💖

[JoannaPracticeNurse @JVintis]

Thrilled to share that I’m a Queen’s Nurse! It’s an incredible honor to be recognized for my dedication to #Nursing and #GeneralPractice 💕

This week, I’ll be sharing my story & why I am a #ProudPracticeNurse

#QueensNurse #NursingLeadership #ProudNurse @PCnursePioneers

[JoannaPracticeNurse @JVintis]

@johnunsworth10 @PCnursePioneers Thank you so much. I can't wait to get there on Friday and be in a room with so many incredible nurses.

[JoannaPracticeNurse @JVintis]

@JamesWade1807 @HelenLStainsby The North East is the place to be! @NorthumbriaUni students have been involved in both projects too

[JoannaPracticeNurse @JVintis]

I am so incredibly proud to say that Newcastle has won 2 years in a row! This year @GPNBecky

I am such a #ProudPracticeNurse and feel so lucky to work in Newcastle with the @NewcastleGPs team, putting the nursing voice right at the forefront!
