UK nurse newbie!

[aromulus]

I had sincerely hoped that my contributions to the forum were helpful and they are most certainly honest. .

No one is doubting that.

The UK government recently announced that in future all NHS nurses must have a university degree. A nurse with a degree and two years' experience working in hospital should be given a warm welcome in this country, especially after having done her duty in Philippines hospitals..

I recently spent a few days at NHS leisure, in one of their establisments, due to a dodgy ticker, and while there I overheard something about contracts not being renewed and consequently a few somebodies having to find future employment in nursing homes, or go home.
Which I thought rather harsh and ungrateful.

My intention is to be helpful where I have the knowledge to do so, as I have already found the forum interesting and helpful.

Your imput is invaluable and aknowledged.

But it won't stop me and/or some others telling the real story.
It isn't done to put people off, but rather as a small warning on what to expect.
