About Me:

I currently work for the NHS as a band 3 Health Care Assistant (HCA) and I am soon to graduate from university with a degree in nursing.

I have been a student nurse for 3 years and have had a fantastic learning experience.

I have worked as a HCA in the NHS in both hospital and community settings.
My Typical Day:

As A student nurse we either study or gain experience in a clinical setting so depending which day I find myself on I will be researching a topic and writing academically or working closely with the public in delivering nursing care.

As a HCA in a community setting I support a group of professionals in keeping people safe in their own homes. I asssit with personal care, mobility, promoting independence and lots more.
Spending the Prize Money:

If I was to be fortunate enough to win the prize money I would spend it on my community and raise awareness and encourage children into healthcare roles found within the NHS.

Firstly I would like to go into schools and enable the youth of today to be trained in Basic Life Support, I would take great pride in teaching them and enabling them to save lives with the suppport of professionals whilst educating them on the roles found within the NHS in hope of them working in healthcare roles in the future.

I would also like to educate the youth of today on being healthy, physically, psychologically, socially, environmentally. I want to provide them with the knowledge and support I believe will encourage them in achieving and stepping into healthcare roles theirselves.
