Talking with my parents today about what 2022 holds for us and it just occurred to me I only have 8 months left of my nursing degree 😱. I am so not ready 😅😬 #studentnurse #thirdyear #nearlyqualified

[#hello my name is Valerie @Val_A86]

@ClaireM55088514 Thanks Claire luckily there seems to be only a small stain on one of the tunics. Will try the hairspray to get it out

Only I would put a pen through a 60 degree wash with white uniforms 🤦🏽‍♀️. Machine won’t pause as to far into the wash. Just hoping now that the pen hasn’t burst 🤞🏻🙏 #studentnurseproblems #machinewashfail

[#hello my name is Valerie @Val_A86]

@kmarshall_23 Nope, I do the exact same thing lol. Watched it so many times 😂

@Natalie_StN @WeStudentNurse @StNurseProject @WeNurses We have been told not to tilt the bed. Use slide sheets, hoist if needed. Can be dangerous to tilt bed on patients who have had strokes

@RobertSowney @RCNStudentsNI Thanks, it was something that was drilled into us double check everything and if you see something you think is wrong don’t give the medication and question it. I think it’s also because I’m a bit slower doing meds that I picked it up lol

Today was a great day on placement, got some lovely feedback from my supervisor and felt like a nurse. Caught an error on a kardex that no one else had noticed. Actually feel like I can do this. Only 17 months to go until qualified lol. #studentnurse #ulsternurse @UlsterUniNurse

My family are deaf, this is one of the reasons I am doing my nursing degree. Patient communication is important Nursing and midwifery council: To have Deaf Awareness and basic sign language as a NMC requirement for nursing- Sign the Petition! https://t.co/i2aRkuikmm via @UKChange

Some advice please. I've never done night shift before. For placement I am working a long day on Sunday then going straight onto nights on monday. Can anyone advise the best way to prepare for sleep and food wise? @StNurseProject @WeStudentNurse @UlsterUniNurse #studentnurse

[#hello my name is Valerie @Val_A86]

@jruddy18 If she is a student nurse I don't think she will be one much longer!

[#hello my name is Valerie @Val_A86]

@Claireywairey95 @UlsterUniNurse I'm sure you are. Make sure you get plenty of sleep so you are fresh tomorrow (easier said than done i know lol). Hopefully will meet some of you all soon, we go out on placement the following week

[#hello my name is Valerie @Val_A86]

Just want to say good luck to all the first years of @UlsterUniNurse starting their first placement this week. Ask questions (there's no thing as a stupid question), get stuck in and help out where you can and enjoy every second #studentnurses #ulsternurse

@BronaghB4 Congratulations Bronagh xo

[#hello my name is Valerie @Val_A86]

@BronaghB4 Happy Birthday Bronagh, hope you've had a lovely day today

[#hello my name is Valerie @Val_A86]

@Claireywairey95 The one I got was £17 I didn't go for the one of the packages, still pricey for a planner though but it was a treat so I don't mind lol

[#hello my name is Valerie @Val_A86]

@Claireywairey95 I used a regular planner for first year but treated myself to a planner from the #happyplannercompany which arrived this morning

At long last 👍👏

Nothing worse than a 2hr drive home after an exam than the answers to a couple of questions that you're unsure of finally pop into your head 😓😭🤦‍♀️ #ulsternurse #studentnurse #firstyearexam @AndreaCShepherd @UlsterUniNurse
