It was a pleasure to welcome third-year Nursing degree students to speak with our Foundation Apprenticeship Health and Social Care class and share their experiences of studying and placement life.

Students heard from Mel Kirby, Lucy Hume and Patty Markiewicz, who offered honest advice and encouragement about the journey into nursing. They spoke about the importance of approaching placements with an open mind, being adaptable, supporting your team, and making the most of every learning opportunity. Lucy reflected on her rewarding placement experience in Nairn, while Mel highlighted that “no day is ever the same” in nursing and encouraged students to bring their energy and enthusiasm to every shift.

The nursing students also shared practical tips for success, including managing your time well from the start, building strong friendships with classmates, staying resilient, and preparing thoughtfully for nursing interviews by being authentic and true to yourself. They discussed the importance of strong English skills for clinical notetaking and communication, and spoke passionately about the most rewarding aspects of the profession, particularly getting to know patients and supporting them on their journey to better health, especially within mental health settings.

A huge thank you to our visiting students for inspiring the next generation of healthcare professionals and giving valuable insight into the realities and rewards of a career in nursing. 🩺💙
