Nursing at Queens...

I was able to get on but when I got to enrol - it said "You do not have access to enrollment at this time". I think I'll try on Monday! Sorry, should also say hello. I'm new to this forum. Starting on the 14th September, Child Branch. Can't wait!
I'm a mature student at 32 and hoping I'm not the oldest one there!!! :smile:

my enrolement is before my uniform fitting, but others seem to have it the opposite way... makes sense tho! :yup:

My enrolment is 3-4 and uniform 4-5. Do we have to bring anything with us - apart from money to pay for uniform?

Reply 468

it didn't say... i would just bring the letter, and to be safe i am bringing some id - just incase... you never know.
I have decided i am going to call them monday morning and explain that a lot of people are having problems enrolling - as it is not yet open.

does anybody know anybody doing mental health nursing??

Ha ha Jason - I'll be the old one among the very young! :p:

So you may be the only guy, or do you know of any others?

louise_1229 - I don't know any mental health - sorry, just a few people doing adult.

too old for this - at least there is someone sort of near my age starting - hope you have a lovely birthday and break away. Nice to have something so nice before you start.

Hmm at my occupational health interview i got talking to another guy who was a few years older than me..so provided he got a place i shouldn't be the only male.....won't really bother me either way really tho.

aww louise you shan't be left in the corner :p:

....i'll be there too ..i'm shy at first but once i get started it's hard to shut me up i talk so much crap :rolleyes:

we are all a bit like that if any of these posts are anything to go by... apparently MH is one of the only branches where men:women is kinda even-ish

suppose cos it can be kinda physical

Some information on the uniform if you want to know what we'll be wearing for the next 3 years on placement. This is from a friend of mine in 3rd year:
"The uniform is a tunic and trousers and a coat. You can't choose a dress. You get 3 tops and 2 trousers. It would be good to get a top with plenty of room as the wards are so so hot! The coat is a waterproof coat in navy with the queens badge on it. It has a fleece on the inside for the winter months....... its really handy..... and i think you are supposed to use it for going into placements instead of your own personal coat. I really don't think anyone would say anything, but i do use it an awful lot."
I'm not sure if we get our uniforms on Tues or just measured for them - anyone know?

I think we get our uniforms a few weeks into the course..as far as i know we won't be on placement until november so in no big rush to get them anyways :smile:

i am hoping we get our student card on tuesday i want to go mad and shop with student discount again

sounds like an idea jason... i have to wait until i get my bursary payment - skinto at the moment... so glad belfastgirl cleared up my confusion!! i was wondering what cost £140... 3 tops, 2 trousers and a coat is a good amount!!

oooh this time next week i will be absolutely uncontrolable with excitement!!
