Advice and support

Hi everyone! I’m new here. I have as of the 8th of Jan became a student nurse. I am currently studying in Liverpool and have chosen Adult nursing. I was wondering, if there is any advice you could give what would it be? I’m feeling a little overwhelmed at the moment but really know this is what I want to do. I am 32 and this is my second time at uni.

Hey Danielle!

First of all, congratulations!! It can be really overwhelming when you first get into uni and have to start thinking about starting the course. When i found out i got in i was so happy i cried a little! But it also felt a little scary and overwhelming! Focus on all the exciting things and start shopping for different stationary, a little bit at a time spreads the cost and also helps the excitment grow while making sure you aren't doing it all at once which is overwhelming.

Best of luck!

Hey,

Congratulations on starting your nursing degree!

It is very common to feel overwhelmed especially at the start of the course as it is all new.

It is great that you know that this is what you want so don't feel disheartened that you feel a little overwhelmed.
