So 3rd and final year commences tomorrow. The plan to become a registered mental health nurse is almost complete! #student #mentalhealth #Nurse

Time to iron the uniforms. Placement one of 3rd year starts tomorrow! Feeling nervous but ready for this next step #keeppushing #LetsGo #year3 #Nursing #Student

To all my fellow student...I feel this may be us attempting to get our skills signed off 🤣

MAT standards webinar. Standard 1 today - 'All people accessing services have the option to start MAT from the same day of presentation' MAT = Medication Assisted Treatment

One of the most interesting and inspiring things I've done during my degree was to attend a peer support group this evening, chatting to and listening to the experiences of people who have had alcohol and/or drug addiction. 🥰 so grateful for the opportunity FIRST

Have been feeling apprehensive about venepuncture and today on my first try I successfully obtained blood samples from a patient. 💉🩸🩹 #studentnurse #clinicalskills

Visited Phoenix Futures in Glasgow today. Such a great facility and so impressed with how its run. It was so lovely to chat with some of the residents. Phoenix Futures Scotland Angela McArthur #studentdays #positiveexperiences #addictionrecovery

Fantastic to see Addiction Services staff together at our thank you event, courtesy of Fife Health Charity. Proud to be part of such an amazing team! #teamfife Fife Health & Social Care Partnership NHS Fife

Great night spent with these lovely ladies educating teens on the effects and risks of drugs! 😁

First placement of 3rd over, a quick but really enjoyable 8 weeks. Back to the classroom tomorrow for 6 weeks of theory and study 💻📚📖

Potentially INCREDIBLY exciting news.

Last day at uni before Christmas break! We brought snacks and gifts 🎅🎉🎁🍰 #SecretSanta #Students #Christmas #Nursing #mentalhealth #classof2020

Discussing this very topic yesterday in Uni! Made for some very interesting opinions and conversations paul smith

It was maybe a bold move to only put one choice on the job application process, but I have a job offer for staff nurse in addiction services 😁🎉🍾🥂 #Nursing #nursingstudent #newjob

Penultimate placement complete and signed off today with some amazing feedback. Learned so much from such a lovely team and had lots of learning opportunities. Looking forward to a weeks annual leave. Might actually get a chance to celebrate the job offer 🍾🥂

Final essay submitted and last exams complete! 🎉🍾 Holiday mode starts now! 🌞🍹🇹🇷

Unfortunately today on placement I had to administer Naloxone. Very difficult circumstances but seeing how effective it can be, emphasises the importance of people carrying Naloxone and learning when, how and why it's used. Feeling quite proud of myself tonight ❤ #studentnurse

Well today's the day....end of a journey! Final day of uni! 🎉🎈🎆 Hard to believe, seems so unreal that 3 years have gone by so quickly. Ready to start a new journey 👩‍🎓

I made it! Staff Nurse Law #nurse #mentalhealthnurse #newlyqualified #staffnurse #NHS
