2nd year, first day of placement and packing the essentials!!

[Pay Student Paramedics @ParamedicsPay]

We are delighted that the time has come for us to say the following to all of our student paramedic peers:
Happy bursary payment day!
🥳💰🚑
We want to thank everyone; students, members of the public, organisations and politicians alike who helped to support our campaign.

[Lisa Tainsh @LisaTainsh]

@EarlyInclusion Thanks, I miss you guys as well.

[Lisa Tainsh @LisaTainsh]

Making notes as I go over medical emergencies in the JRCALC book, how am I ever going to remember it all. 34 pages of notes so far and only at febrile illness in children, never mind the drugs paramedics carry and use. 2nd year is going to be a baptism of fire, getting ready!

@CraigUsherUK That’s nuts, gone are the days where I can get up when I want so being awake at this time is brutal for me .

[Lisa Tainsh @LisaTainsh]

What’s not to like about a little insomnia, I mean a social media catch up at 2.30am is nothing short of peaceful in my household. Well with the exception of my husbands snoring.

[Lisa Tainsh @LisaTainsh]

This looks about right for my kids. Got to love a 7.5week school holiday and spending a fortune.

[Lisa Tainsh @LisaTainsh]

Well this feels amazing to receive today and a massive weight of my shoulders for next year.

[Lisa Tainsh @LisaTainsh]

I’m heading down to listen to @ParamedicsPay giving a speech at Glasgow green to celebrate 73years of the NHS. Good luck !!

[Lisa Tainsh @LisaTainsh]

@TomSteele19 @HumzaYousaf @CraigUsherUK It was an absolute pleasure meeting you today and thanks for listening and having us there to represent @Stir_Para and all student voices.

[Alan Smith @Political_AlanS]

Lisa, Lizzie and Craig are all paramedic students

They met with the Health Secretary this morning and have been telling me about the difference the annual bursary will make

[Lisa Tainsh @LisaTainsh]

@EdinburghZoo such a lovely day, sitting by the penguins

[Lisa Tainsh @LisaTainsh]

We only went and did it. Meeting with @HumzaYousaf today was proper nice and great to hear that all Students studying paramedic science will receive a well deserved bursary. @ParamedicsPay

[Lisa Tainsh @LisaTainsh]

Massive thank you to @AnasSarwar for taking the time out of his day to meet with @ParamedicsPay. If only the @theSNP @NicolaSturgeon and @HumzaYousaf would do the same.

[Pay Student Paramedics @ParamedicsPay]

Brilliant meeting with @AnasSarwar today. He was clear in his commitment that student paramedics in Scotland deserve a bursary whilst we train.

We are going to keep fighting so that no student paramedic has to study in poverty ✊🏿✊🏽✊🏻

[Pay Student Paramedics @ParamedicsPay]

Our campaign has received a huge amount of support and crucially from @NUSScotland and @MCrilly

Sadly though we are still waiting for a meeting with @HumzaYousaf on whether this bursary will be in place before September #PayStudentParamedics

[Lisa Tainsh @LisaTainsh]

My last shift of my ambulance placement today, going to miss the crew and the experiences and learnings I’ve been privileged to be apart of. Thank you @Scotambservice for letting first years learn and develop in becoming future paras and to all those mentors supporting us.

[Lisa Tainsh @LisaTainsh]

Come along and support the March with one of our own speaking on behalf of @ParamedicsPay

[Lisa Tainsh @LisaTainsh]
