It’s sad that we’re given annual leave over summer yet we all mainly have to work full time to earn money to live 😫

[Lydia- Student Nurse @PUNC17Lydia]

@PUNCLauraC I’m on this cool new diet called I can’t afford a food shop despite working a million days a week 🙃 summer break is nearly here 💪🏼

[Lydia- Student Nurse @PUNC17Lydia]

And by freedom I mean a summer full of bank work of course 🙃💸

[Lydia- Student Nurse @PUNC17Lydia]

After all the blood, sweat and so many tears second year is officially passed 🥳 just another couple of weeks at placement then freedom ☀️

[Lydia- Student Nurse @PUNC17Lydia]

@PUNC17_katy I was down to £12 a couple of days ago 🤣 the joys of being a student 😩

[My notes on nursing @mynursing_notes]

Things that make a placement great for me:
⭐ Being made to feel part of the team
⭐ Having a mentor who's passionate about teaching
⭐ Being able to practice my skills in a safe & supportive setting
⭐ My mentor knowing what I need to complete for uni

Evenings like this make me so glad I didn’t move away to study 🥰 near my family, my dog and my beloved beach #plymouthuni #cornwallcampus #adultnursing #homesweethome

It’s reached that point in second year where coffee is no longer sufficient, I think I need a stat dose of PR rocket fuel 🚀 #studentnurse #help

I’m so over working 8 days a week now 😴

Can anyone tell me what the hourly rate for someone at band 3 in the NHS is, or how to calculate it?

[Lydia- Student Nurse @PUNC17Lydia]

@PUNC17becky I live in Cornwall if your stuck anywhere 😊 not what you need at all hope you sort it quickly and not too expensively

[Lydia- Student Nurse @PUNC17Lydia]

@PUNCLauraC @MetroUK What kind of student nurse is being paid £6 an hour?! Sign me up for that! Would be happy with 50p an hour 😩

[Lydia- Student Nurse @PUNC17Lydia]

@RCHTPeriopEd @puncamysawyer @ClaireITUMatron @GandT2Go Thank you! I will keep my eyes peeled 😊

[Lydia- Student Nurse @PUNC17Lydia]

@RCHTPeriopEd @puncamysawyer @ClaireITUMatron For some reason Twitter is saying I am unable to message you, sorry. Is there any information on this rotational preceptorship online anywhere, I’ve never heard of it before and I would be very interested in applying 😊

[Lydia- Student Nurse @PUNC17Lydia]

This is hilarious 😂

Ode to medical night shifts in the style of Jon Snow.

[Lydia- Student Nurse @PUNC17Lydia]

@RCHTPeriopEd @puncamysawyer Where can I find more information about this please?

[Lydia- Student Nurse @PUNC17Lydia]

@puncamysawyer Just commenting because I want to follow the responses you get to this tweet ☺️

[Lydia- Student Nurse @PUNC17Lydia]

@PUNCbethanieb This happened to me on Friday too 😩 hope you’ve got it sorted okay 🤞🏼🚙

[Lydia- Student Nurse @PUNC17Lydia]

@Nurse_Lecturer @PUNC14 Thank you

[Lydia- Student Nurse @PUNC17Lydia]

@PUNC14 can anyone confirm if we are allowed to scrub in theatre on placement, heard mixed things from students, some saying we aren’t allowed, but no definitive answer on Moodle etc 😊 thank you!
