Northumbria /Teeside Adult Nursing Applicants 2015 entry.

Tbh it put me off in the interview! I was trying tone friendly etc & they were just straight faced or the other woman had a constant fake smile on her face like Barney. There was no group tasks no. Thankfully!

They asked things like; being a nurse you will meet all kinds of people with different ideas, beliefs, values etc to you and other people. How would you manage this and what are you thoughts.
Another was something along the lines of how can you involve the patient and family etc regarding you caring for them.

They have a pre-made list of 6 questions each & they pick and choose which ones they ask. I had to ask so many times for them to repeat the questions because of the way they were worded I've never felt so dumb haha

Hello EbonyR. in the English test what scenarios were you given?

Hey I can't remember exactly but the first scenario was: a male patient is being verbally abusive towards members of the nursing team and other patients can hear. What would you do? What are the main issues? (There was another Q but can't remember)
Another scenario was: a mother with a young child (boy) are waiting at a waiting room when the mother starts becoming abusive/hostile towards the receptionist claiming she is being 'nasty' (not the word used! Lol) to her son. What possible reasons could the mother have for acting this way? What would you do?
Another was: what main qualities of a nurse do you have? Why do you consider these the main qualities?

There was another scenario/question but I can't remember - sorry!

Got my interview today for Northumbria via email - 8th December! Time to start prepping I think haha

Have you heard from any yet? I got a reply on the Monday for Cumbria for interview which I'm over the moon about but I'll not be too happy until I get northumbria that's where I want to go !! X

Mine is also 10th at 8:45... Has anyone heard from Northumbria yet?

I heard back on Saturday and have an interview tomorrow! I applied over a month ago. How are you getting on with your application x

Maybe you should call the uni?

I applied to Teesside last year but my application wasn't processed properly.

I applied and hadn't heard anything back after a couple of months so I rang the uni to double-check they had received my application. My application had been printed off but had gotten lost so admissions reviewed it there and then. They offered me the last place on the last day of interviewing. Had two days to prepare for the selection panel but got told that it was either take this shot or apply again next year.

I have an interview for Teeside in December. I only applied for Teeside and Northumbria as I have children, it's Northumbria I really want though as even Teeside is a bit far x

Hi, when's your interview for teeside? ive just got mine through for the 12th December X

Great ☺mine is 10th December x
