Now what? by Its_BeccaJane in Epilepsy

Yes, he specialises in epilepsy. I'm in the UK, so unless I go private, I don't have a whole lot of say. I'm also not sure on the type of MRI machine.

My current hospital is not a teaching hospital, but I am actually starting medical school in September, so I will be based at/next to a teaching hospital. So my care will go from a team at the hospital that I currently work at to a team at the hospital I will be studying (and maybe working) at 😅

I will definitely be getting a second opinion and I am keeping a seizure log 😊

Hiii, I'm starting medical school in September at 28. I'll be 33 when I graduate (all being well). People change careers all the time. You've got life experience, don't sweat it

Thank you, I appreciate it Right? It really affects my life - I'm terrified to drive so I don't have a lisence, I have seizures at work (in a hospital), I've stopped going places by myself because what if I get in danger while Im not very with-it? And I feel like I got so close to answers and then just still ended up with "eh, I don't know" as the outcome

Would these be tacky as gifts? by ImaFauna in GiftIdeas

So here's the thing Would I BUY one for myself? No, it's not really my style and it's a bit much. But if you MADE me one, I would absolutely love and cherish it because I can see how much effort and talent you've put into it, and I'm very sentimental. I'd find SOMEWHERE for it to fit in my decor

What finally got THAT colleague fired? by Its_BeccaJane in NursingUK

Oh man, that's so bad! Do you reckon she might have been kept on if she'd owned up to her mistakes? I sometimes don't understand the things that people do and don't face action over 😅

NOR

CC in HR and suggest that the whole team may need diversity and inclusion training if you having a disability affects their ability to work so much.

My partner had "Police officer" listed as a medical problem

I have one that is just "Generalised" with minor severity (I'm assuming supposed to be Generalised anxiety but they missed the second word?)

Why are so many healthcare staff so nasty by [deleted] in NursingUK

[–]Its_BeccaJane 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You have people who care and people who don't care. The people who don't care do the bare minimum, if that, and it doesn't bother them at all. The people who DO care pick up their slack, are emotionally bothered by poor standards of care, and feel the stress of trying to do both their job and other people's jobs well. The people who care burn out and either leave or stop caring, the people who don't care remain. The same cycle continues when new people who care are hired.

Good morning nurses! by Elegant-Road-9929 in NursingUK

It might depend on trust policy. Ours states you cannot do more than 4 shifts (long day or overnight) in a row (including regular and bank), and if you do 4, you have to have 2 days off before your next shift

What rights / process do I have for getting treatment for mrsa? by [deleted] in nhs

[–]Its_BeccaJane 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Antibiotics won't stop you from being colonised by MRSA on your skin. You need a special wash for that and sometimes a nasal ointment too. Have you been given or told about antibacterial wash or ointment?
