For those who think they can't be leaders because they're introverted or too nervous/quiet, I recommend reading Natalie Stuart's recent blog featured on #150Leaders website: councilofdeans.org.uk/studentleaders… #WeStNs

Teaching medical students about the importance of communication skills One time a colleague sent a patient to the bathroom for a urine sample The patient returned with the sample bottle EMPTY and said: “I didn’t need that, there was a toilet in there!” 😂😂😂🤦🏾‍♂️

Hospitals screen & place on 'contact' patients who test positive for certain organisms. We're then required to adorn fab yellow monkey suits before entering their rooms. Yet hospitals never test nurses for the same organisms. Hmm. Sounds to me a dirty little denial! #nursing

Have a "joker" face for the skull. Anyways learned about the in-depth information when you nod. #Biology #NRS414 #Neckmuscle #Punc19

When you are starting to revise for the exam with banging doors and loud music going on, precautions are being made beforehand and prepared lecture notes coming in use. #sushingflatmates #Nrs414 #bioexam #dec3

Help!! Drug Calculation!! Q: The max daily dose of Drug N for a child is 20mg/kg/day. A child weighing 24kg is prescribed the medicine 6 hourly. How much in mg will be given in each single dose, every six hours? #NRS415 @hannahlames1

First day placement done wonderfully!! Got our nervousness eased with the cheerful morning patients and a lovely team! Having Zoe with was also fun.🤣 Looking forward for more! @punc19 #puncplacement #8hourshiftsuccessful #Cheerfulpatients

Big shout out to all the student nurses working unpaid 40hr weeks on placements, those who have children and a house to run, those working additional hours for money, and those struggling. You’re all amazing, keep going! #StudentNurse

A few times on placement I've seen discourtesy towards RNs & HCAs, I've been referred to as 'the student' & overheard 'she's just here to help with obs' (I corrected this). Forget what colour you're wearing & your pay band. We should ALL have the same goal - caring for patients.

Nursing is academic, it’s caring, it’s dynamic, challenging, diverse, it’s research, education, listening. #Nursing is so different, but similar. It challenges me in more ways I could have ever imagined, and there is more scope to carve out my own path than I ever knew.

There are lots of misconceptions about #CoronaOutbreak Here are some FUN FACTS! Bollywood is the best way to learn! #COVID19 #CoronaVirusUpdates

Beautiful view with good amount of Vitamin D, and online lectures given by the best. Wonderful Monday morning. # NRS413

Very sad not to see the phenomenal work of nurses get recognition in today’s pay rise announcement They are the backbone of our healthcare system Nurses have worked tirelessly during the pandemic and deserve more than the deal negotiated in 2018 #nurse

I am tweeting and learning about #AllOurHealth – this is my first tweet to get me started learning out loud with @PHE_UK and WeLearn .
