I’ve been working as a dental nurse for about 10 years in Hong Kong and am planning to move to England, if I don’t have the GSCE results, can I study functional skills instead?

Just wondering... why does Abbey have her mask underneath her nose? It looks strange and must surely affect protection, either to her or to the patient
Hi Peter, Thanks for your comment. You could try a medical supplier for that, we're unable to recommend any particular company though. Hope this helps.
Dear Lorenzo, Thank you for contacting Health Careers. It’s fantastic to hear you are considering an apprenticeship within the NHS. Applying for apprenticeships is a bit like applying for jobs. You will need to search for available vacancies and then apply. There may not always be an apprenticeship available in your area in your chosen field. However, if there is not one currently available in the area you are looking for it is worth contacting the local NHS trust to find out if there are plans to advertise one shortly, and it is also worth thinking about whether to apply for a related apprenticeship in the same field. Many NHS organisations will have a lead for apprenticeships who are likely to be in either the education, training or HR department. You can apply for most apprenticeships at any age. To start one, you’ll need to be 16 or over, living in England and not in full-time education. For more information about this, you should contact The National Apprenticeship Helpdesk nationalhelpdesk@findapprenticeship.service.gov.uk Telephone: 0800 015 0400 NHS services in England are currently provided by around 1,000 separate organisations. Each is an employer in its own right, and each will have its own apprenticeship policy. Most NHS organisations in England and Wales will advertise their job and apprenticeship vacancies on the NHS Jobs website: www.jobs.nhs.uk and/or www.gov.uk/apply-apprenticeship You can read more about apprenticeships in the NHS on the Health Careers website: www.healthcareers.nhs.uk/career-planning/study-and-Training/apprenticeships-traineeships-and-cadet-schemes You can contact the National Careers Service for free careers advice and guidance.

Asking on behalf of my sister who's a recent BSC nurse graduate top up from Salford, Manchester. Want to know how she could become a full time Dental nurse. Thanks 👍
Your sister needs to be looking for full or part time trainee dental nurses apprentice positions. There is a shortage of dental nurses now in the UK so she could well be successful. She will need good grades in GCSE Maths and English. If your sister is successful she will have to either do an NVQ or National Examining Board for Dental Nurses (NEBDN) course and that she will have to apply to the GDC register once qualified for membership. Also she will need Hepatitis B immunisation before working in surgery. Your sister can do the course whilst working in surgery under training with a clinician and receiving online training. If your sister wants to be successful then she should buy Levison's for Dental Nurses book.
If I completed the 18-24 month of level 3 dental nurse apprenticeship instead of doing a levels. Will I be able to get admitted to a university to study dental hygiene as a course? Or will I need more qualifications?

Hi, a level 3 apprenticeship will give you the ucas equivalent of 3 a levels, as that’s what most 2 year level 3 courses give you anyway. Now, to answer your question about university that really depends on the university itself, you will have to enquire with them and tell them what course you’re doing right now and what course you want to do with them they will help you understand whether you meet the requirements or not.
You will have to do a level biology and have 2 years post qualification dental nursing experience, i think the only uni that you don't need bio with is uni of portsmouth! xx
@@xalcohollyx Unfortunately this isn’t the case, I’m currently a hygiene student at UoP. Unless they’ve changed it since last year, nursing can be used in lieu of 1 A-Level but you still need a science A-Level or Level 3 access to HE science course
Hello there, Please may I ask if the qualifications for being a Dental Nurse in Northern Ireland is the same? I am a Dental Nurse Trainee in HK, thought I need to take a course before and register in GDC before I look for a Dental Nurse job in NI. （Once I got the visa successfully) May I know the details about which institutes or college are providing these Dental Nurse courses? Or how I could enrol those courses and how could I register in GDC? Thank you.
Thank you for contacting Health Careers Grace it’s great to hear you are considering moving to Northern Ireland.

@@HealthCareers Thank you very much for providing the details. However I believe Northern Ireland should be part of the UK. In this case would you kindly let me know if I shall follow the same as England, so to enroll for the Dental Nurse course before registered with GDC. If this is the case, would you be able to provide details about the Dental Nurse courses providers/organisations? Thanks very much!
Thank you for contacting Health Careers Grace. We do hope you found our previously information useful.

Do not even thinking f being a dental nurse! Worst idea ever! You work as much as dentist, sometimes you can’t even find a time to go for a wee lol underpaid! Ridiculously... u will see someone working in the office less stress more money then u will realise not worth it at all
Could not agree more I started as a dental nurse. Moved on to being a dental technician . Now i am a patient care co-ordinator . Less stress and well paid and overtime is non exsistant !
Would like to say this to every person who wants to start a career in dental nursing. So underpaid. You have to come in early and leave often late. This will not be paid as extra time. Most places will pay you minimum wage or £9 per hour standard. As well as paying GDC registration fees and indemnity.
