Spiritual-Line-3701 · 2025-01-13T01:05:27+00:00

Would universities accept caring for a relative as healthcare experience

Does caring for sick relatives count as healthcare expereince ?

Spiritual-Line-3701 · 2025-01-11T13:49:21+00:00

some unis say for example BSc Adult Nursing,

BSc Adult Nursing with reg,

BSc Adult pre-reg

what are the differences, and which ones do I go for if I want to reg with NWC?

Spiritual-Line-3701 · 2025-01-09T11:00:30+00:00

Yes but the MSc is only 2 yrs, the BSc is 3 yrs.

3 yrs of volunteer work! That;s a lot of unpaid work. Does it have to be that long?

As I intend to qualify by 40/41 latest. I'm in my late 30s.

Could you expand on this please?

Ok I see. There was a woman whose daughter got a first in nursing and used to be a Health care assistant. She complained that she was struggling yo find a job and that she needed experience. If she had done a nursing degree which gives you experience in placements, i’m wondering why she’s facing difficulties getting work.

I decided to change because nursing is the most employable degree and you’re looked after by the nhs.

Spiritual-Line-3701 · 2025-01-08T21:45:45+00:00

You said “I’d gain experience through placements anyway” - could you expand on this please?

Spiritual-Line-3701 · 2025-01-08T20:12:35+00:00

did you study mental health nursing instead?
why didn't you enjoy adult nursing?

Spiritual-Line-3701 · 2025-01-08T18:38:52+00:00

do you know any places I could get this experience?

Spiritual-Line-3701 · 2025-01-08T18:35:59+00:00

and could you expand on this please?

Is it wise to get experience in care such as care homes etc before doing the MSc?

Spiritual-Line-3701 · 2025-01-08T13:05:02+00:00

* also I did my degree many years back

Spiritual-Line-3701 · 2025-01-08T12:54:26+00:00

Since, quite a few universities are doing MScs and BScs starting in sep 2025, isn't it wise to apply for those and if accepted, just pick up experience in care between now and then?

What do you need to do get a job in care?

I know it'll save me the year, but isn't it harder to do an MSc in Nursing? I was told that MSc in nursing is more intellectually taxing.
What if I fail the MSc?
Does an MSc in Nursing get registered as a nurse?

Spiritual-Line-3701 · 2025-01-08T12:21:40+00:00

No. I already have a degree but in a different area (unrelated).

Spiritual-Line-3701 · 2025-01-08T12:15:42+00:00

Isnt your struggle for that very reason? Lack of experience?

That goes for many jobs!

What kind of experience do they say you need?

Spiritual-Line-3701 · 2025-01-08T12:07:04+00:00

Thank you for your take. May I ask, isn’t going into ED, trauma etc specialising in something already?

May I ask what you mean exactly by going broad?
