I am so Proud of you… I have a Community nursing interview this week and You literally took me round the job and I Love it. GOD Bless You and I Pray I Pass Flawlessly, AMEN🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
I'm starting my nursing degree this year and for some reason I've been binge watching videos like this. Yours has been my favourite. Your patients are lucky to have you, beautiful soul. Subbed. 😁
I am staring my second placement tomorrow and am with the district nurses. Really enjoyed watching you so thank you for making me feel less nervous and more excited
It's so good to actually see the day to day,I am soo ready,I just need to pass my dissertation.........so much other nurses bash community nursing but it's the only placement I've thoroughly enjoyed..
Tips for those interested to become a DN. 1- be aware that patient house is their house, you can’t open curtains or turn the light on without their permission, in case you can’t see your notes, help yourself. 2- smoke and holders be aware that you may need to work around of trash because some houses is not cleaned 🧹 at all. 3- you work by yourself without a colleague to you to ask questions. 4- you will need to drive a LOT, and your car will be undervalued because of the mileage. 5- your car is not your car anyone, it will be with a lot of mess that you need to work. 6- be aware you will turn to patient house and they will probably be on the floor, or even deceased. You will have to sort out by yourself. 7- paper work is never end, you will always have something to do out of work hours. Overall is an okay ish job. Good luck for those interested, you will need.
I'm a NQN and have started my career in the community 😁 Thank you for sharing your lovely spirit and raising awareness of our role. Keep up the great work! 😘
That’s lovely Katie❤️❤️. The community is a lovely place to be and thank you for this beautiful comment. Have a wonderful time in the community, I’m sure you’ll love it 😘
Madam Uber thanks for taking me along on your work schedule. I enjoyed your singing, I can imagine the weight of loss of lives on your line of work. I’m glad you have all the logistics for your work
I, have had to experience numerous visits from community nurses last year. The treatment received can and does vary so much, for the same training, depending on the individual. Respect to them though. A very noble profession.
Yes I will surely. I am overwhelmined to talk t.o such a kind hurt person . Thank you so much mam. U the most wonderful person ❤️❤️❤️❤️. I am definitely gona meet u🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏. May JEHOVAH God bless you abundantly ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️.
Sky news just show a programme about district nurse. You are the best ladies (and maybe guys?) I bet that especially now, during covid, your patients needs you more than ever. Stay. Awesome!
I enjoyed watching you!❤ Just search for a community nurse because I'll be trying it soon. I also like the flexibility of it. Newly registered RN in Canada ❤🇨🇦
Aaawww, I can relate to how you feel when a patient passes away, I am a Radiotherapist. You just have to be strong an carry on. Thanks for taking us along today, you are doing a great job. Dear Denise x
Read regulatory and disciplinary law. Familiarise yourself with the trial processes. Far too many nurses are struck off for really trivial reasons. We need nurses. 🙂🤗✝️☮️⛪🕉️
Thank you for an interesting video, as a first year student nurse getting ready to attend first ever placement with the district nurses this was very informative! 🙂
So glad I found your channel, you have given me the motivation I needed to do community nursing.. it’s something I’ve always wanted to do.🤗 I have so many questions to ask, how can I contact you?
Hi good day please Hi , good morning to you all, I am a diploma community health nurse applying on the nmc webpage. Since my job description spans across not just working with adults but children and in various settings, I'm confused as to whether to choose nursing associate or registered nurse
Beautiful nurse. You look beautiful with the uniform. Next uni is nursing. I would be a community nurse but don't like the driving. Not an ubber driver
I enough joining you at work. Am Sorry about the lost of your patient that day . you can never get used to it. Didn't know you do all this as part of your everyday role.
Wooow, I love ur video. Thanks for this. I am having an interview in two days time for a Community nurse position, please ma is all their vehicles only manual? Its automatic cars that I can drive well, I have never tried manual 😭
Hi Chioma, thanks so much. I drive automatic. They usually don’t provide you with a car, you have to use your own car. I’m not sure about the Trust you’re applying to but usually, you use your own car and they pay for the fuel used while at work
Oh my God, she replied so fast 💃💃, thanks my chief 🙏🙏. Its Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust in Luton. When I applied to them, I wrote that I can drive very well and all that, but later someone told me that cars in the UK are mostly manual. When we had an informal interview, they made mention of providing us with their available car until we are able to get personal one. Now my fear is, if it is manual that I am asked to move and I couldn't do that, it will look as if I am not honest 😢😢😭. I am also searching for their interview questions cos my formal interview with them is on the 12th of December, being Monday
Hi I am glad I came across your channel I am a Zambian registered public health nurse and I am affiliated with the nurses and midwifery council of Zambia can I practice as an overseas nurse in uk
Hi Ivy, hope you’re good. Thank you for watching my video, I appreciate. Yes, if you’re a registered nurse, I’m sure you can. Please check the NMC website for UK. There’s more information there. Again, as an overseas nurse, I know most people come here through agencies while some apply direct. It depends on the Trust you’re applying to. Let me know if you need more information. Thank you
Yes but be careful where you go. Some areas are mor friendly than others... Read law. Many many nurses are struck off for minor errors by lawyers who are not accountable at ALL.
Helpful and loving your content,am training as a community nurse 🇿🇲in zambia, how many years of work experience do they need to work as a community nurse in UK?
Thanks so much and all the best in your studies, you’ll do great. You don’t really need any experience to be a community nurse. All you need is your qualification as a registered nurse. They’ll train you in whatever skills you need when you start. Please check my latest video, I answered a lot of questions. Thank you ❤️❤️
Ideally, you’re supposed to stay in the office in case anything comes up but some allow you to go home but can still call you if anything comes up . The number of patients depends. Some Trust have more patients than others. Ours ranges between 7 to 10 a day
You can keep it with you for about 2 hours in a special container provided. We all have one of that container and take it to any any GP surgery around you but be aware of their picking times as each GP surgery has a time that samples are being picked up by a courier to the hospital.
Hi Gayathri, I haven’t worked with that Trust before so not really sure about them. The standard of District nursing is always the same everywhere in th UK so I’m sure it’ll be a great place to work❤️❤️
In inner London you dont need acar as they is no parking areas and houses are close to each other Outer central London London yes you need. All the best for your interview
Evening dear, I have just qualified as a nurse and I was just looking for inspiration in regards to working in the community, as I always thought I wanted to work on the wards; although my mind has recently changed. Please can you enlighten me when you say community offers more flexibility and also any other advice,pros and cons etc Thank you x
Thanks for watching ❤️❤️. If you’re a parent, you can do flexible hours so you can drop and also pick your kids up from school. This you need to discuss with them at the interview. Because you’re given your list for the day, you plan your day according to the needs of the patients on your list so you’re in control of how you want your day to go. I like the fact that I am stuck on a ward the whole day with little breaks in between. You can have breaks in between patients as I said depending on how you plan your day. One con will be the fact that you need to be driving first. The community also only pays for your mileage and not necessarily the servicing of your car so every cost of repairing your car will be on you and because you’re constantly driving the car, you might have to be fixing some things once in a while depending on the state of your car
@@AkuaAgyemang perfect. just got my job offer as a community nurse for CLHT could you please lend me your email address, I need to understand a few things before I take up the job. If you don't mind
Yes of course, you can do agency work along side. It’s normally a 9-5 job but some trusts start at 8:30. Full time is Monday to Friday but you can do part time
Oh hi there, I’m glad you found my video useful ❤️❤️. Community earning is just like the wards, just different between different trusts and where you’re based. Nurses in London earn a bit more than those outside London. Again, it depend how many hours you do, whether part time or full time. I hope this helps. Let me know if if need more clarification. Thanks
Hello hun, no they’re not the same. Health visitors are specifically trained for children. They take over from the midwives after a baby is born till they become adult. Community nurses are just regular nurses who deliver care in people’s own home instead of a care setting or hospitals. Public health nurses are normally specialised nurses in the area of sexual health or health protection. They do not necessarily visit people at home to deliver nursing care. They’re more into educating the public through awarenesses. Both nurses and midwives can train to become health visitors and public health nurses but only nurses can become community/district nurses.
Hi, it actually depends on your team and their caseload. Where I am at the moment, it can range from 7 to 12 a day. It might be different from other places.
Healthcare regulatory and disciplinary lawyers have to publish untruths about nurses so that the lawyers and regulators have sil nced customers. Make sure if you do nursing that your well versed in regulatory law and not just 'healthcare law'. Know how to instruct defence lawyers, employment lawyers and rehearse how to give evidence in court Lawyers have a reputation for a reason...they lay with the dark side £££ 🙂🤗
My Ghanaian sis this is just a concerned question but are you allowed to make videos on the job? Does NMC/NHS/UK protocols permit this? With patient confidentiality, professionalism and all that? (Because 1. You’re in uniform and making social media videos.....others have been disciplined for a lot less 2. You’re driving to and showing patient addresses which can be seen and used ulteriorly by anybody etc) Are you sure you won’t get into trouble if the nursing board sees this? Remember it’s the internet and anybody can come across this Just a humble opinion from another Ghanaian sis.
If you watched the video I did not show any thing about any patient. Nothing at all. And I wasn’t talking whiles driving, I only did when I was packed. No address was shown and no detail was revealed either. I just filmed my driving and did a voice over while editing. And with uniform, there’s no problem with that.
