I have a place on the Children's Nursing degree course at Greenwich University. Start date is May 2012!! I am very excited
I'm 24 and have been working since I finished my A-Levels so this is a career change for me.
I have already started buying books (while I have the money):
The Student Nurse Handbook (2nd ed) - Amazon - £10.92
Bailliere's Nurses' Dictionary - Amazon - £3.49
Ross and Wilson Anatomy and Physiology in Health and Illness - Amazon - £6.74
The Student Handbook and Anatomy book were from Amazon traders and the Anatomy book was 2nd hand (like new) because the brand new versions were a bit pricey.
I have also subscribed to Nursing Standard online and I receive their magazine. It's a MASSIVE resource with leaftlets, archives and news!
I would love to hear from fellow Child Nursing students and anyone who will be studying a NUrsing course with Greenwich next year!
