You are so inspiring and motivating Claire! I’ve been a HCA for nearly 6 years now and I’m feeling ready to get the access qualifications I need to get onto a nursing course.
Sarah Redman Thank you so much! I hope so :) I’ve done ok so far... I definitely do not want to fall at the last hurdle haha! I do feel a bit better today thank you 🌻 I hope you’re having a great weekend x
I've applied to start Adult Nursing this September and I find your videos so helpful in knowing what to expect! I've searched UA-cam for as much information as I can and your videos are the most informative by far! Thank you so much for sharing all you do 😊
@@ClaireCarmichael No problem, it really is good of you to share your experiences to help others 😊 and hopefully Derby's Chesterfield campus if I pass my interview 🤞🏻
@@naomisomers3913 Ooh lovely! It sounds like a nice campus :) I'm sure you will pass that interview no problem :) I don't know anyone thats had an interview there sorry! BUT are you on twitter? Twitter is great for tweeting questions and getting great answers :D
Eeeeeek so exciting!! I cant wait to be in my final year haha! I did the same thing as you! We got three tunics for 4 years and Ive worn the same tunic for two years (I wash it every night!) and in third year ill bust out a fresh one and in 4th year ill use my last one! So i'll have a lovely fresh uniform for each of the important years lol! I just wish we had stripes to sew on!
Nurse Corinne haha that’s amazing!! We are going to be the cleanest looking students around 🙈 how funny. I love the stripes. It makes me so proud :) do you get anything to go on your uniform to show what year you’re in? X
@@ClaireCarmichael Nope nothing at all! They used to do badges that had your name, college, course and your year on it so mine would say BNSc General 2017 but they stopped making them when we got our "Hellomynameis" badges! Hope you have a great week next week! Ive been trying to vlog myself over the last week but honestly theyve all been clips of me walking to clinicals and nothing else LOL! So i keep scrapping them!
@@NurseCorinne Aw that's a shame! But I do LOVE the hello my name is badges! :D Aww keep trying! I love your vlogs :) Its nice to see what you've been up to as well x
Sez Francis I’m feeling a little bit better thank you :) pizza went down a treat haha. I did leave some for the next day 🙈 it’s going to be a busy year I think :) can’t wait 🌟🌻
I'm starting nursing in September and I've been watching a lot of UA-cam videos to know what to expect. Most of the youtubers are from outside UK. They wear their fancy scrubs. And I've been trying so hard to find info about UK nursing uniform...do you wear your uni uniform to hospital placements as well? And can you choose to wear a scrub of the same colour at your placement instead of a tunic?
Sunai Tanha Morning! Thanks for your question :) we HAVE to wear our uniform for hospital placements. We aren’t allowed to wear anything else unless the placement is somewhere like theatres where you have to wear their own scrubs :) we don’t wear uniform for university unless we have a skills training session like basic life support 😃 I know some other fields of nursing like mental health, sometimes they can wear their own clothes to placement because of the nature of the place (if that makes sense). Hope that helps 🤗 Claire x
