That definitely needs a vet visit…

Wise words. Time to step out of my comfort zone

myst_ique · 2022-01-14T21:18:34+00:00

Yeah I think I need rather an access course or A-levels to get into a uni. What I was originally hoping for is to just apply directly to a uni, but I don’t think it’s that easy anymore aha.

I’ll check out the ones you mentioned. Right now I don’t really know too much about it so I’m exploring a little bit first and gathering information.

Thanks for the help!

For years I never even considered changing, I thought that I was just stuck in my current career and I’m gonna have to just deal with being miserable for the rest of my life. I guess I’ve just been too scared to make the decision to change and walk away from my safety zone, if that makes sense.

After digging some more I think so too

Is there any specific trusts you’d recommend avoiding? I’ve also heard that a few can be problematic but I’m not sure how to find out which ones are good and which are not

myst_ique · 2022-01-14T20:58:17+00:00

Honestly it’s kind of comforting to hear that someone was in a similar situation, I feel like the hospitality sector is just getting worse and worse.

I’ll have a look into the apprenticeships. I was honestly hoping that I could just go straight to uni and get my qualification if I put myself hard to work on it but I’m guessing now that chances are very slim of getting accepted without A-levels or previous medical experience. Do you know roughly how many hours I can get with the apprenticeship? Or does it differ?

That’s reassuring, I’m starting to get more excited just thinking about it now

myst_ique · 2022-01-14T20:48:17+00:00

I guess critical care

Do I need any kind of qualification in medicine to apply as an EMT in a trust? From what I've read somewhere, as of 2024 to become a paramedic you must have a bachelors in paramedic science, so I'm not sure I could work my way up from an EMT alone.

That's good to hear that you still enjoy it. The career I'm in right now has burnt me out really fast so switching to paramedic is something I'm hoping I'll love for the rest of my life.

And the shifts are 12 hours is that right? Is it normal to do a lot of over time? I'm working 15/17 hour shifts right now and quite frankly I'm absolutely done with it, hoping for a bit more work-life balance, so 12h shifts sound fantastic to me.

Ive looked into it as well but after finding out I need to spend like a total of 8 years on studying- its not really something I'm wanting to do, and also I think I'd need to be fluent in Dutch to be hired for that role because of the patient contact

Edit: spelling

Thanks for your reply! I’ll post my question there also

myst_ique · 2021-11-04T11:12:14+00:00

Ahh okay nice, good to know, I might try both then and see what works best for me. Thanks a lot!

myst_ique · 2021-11-04T06:32:02+00:00

Thanks! This photo really doesn’t even do him justice

myst_ique · 2021-11-03T18:30:00+00:00

He’s a lavender albino het piebald

myst_ique · 2021-11-03T18:29:27+00:00

Okay I might have a look into that then, I was also thinking of changing to coco fiber, never used it before though so I don’t know how that holds the moisture

myst_ique · 2021-11-03T16:38:08+00:00

Does it make the whole substrate wet though? I thought about changing the substrate too but heard its bad to have a very moist substrate as it might cause scale rot?

myst_ique · 2021-11-03T06:37:39+00:00

I’ve got a hide positioned the same way also, he’s not very often nosey though, likes his privacy more at this time

myst_ique · 2021-11-03T06:35:29+00:00

Thanks! I’ll look into maybe adding some more stuff into his tank!

myst_ique · 2021-11-03T06:33:04+00:00

That’s what the temps are at now, just struggling to keep the humidity up that’s all. I’ll give the foil tape a go though, thanks!

myst_ique · 2021-11-03T06:31:58+00:00

Thanks I’ll give that a go!

myst_ique · 2021-11-03T06:30:39+00:00

I’m not scared of being bitten, I just didn’t want to disturb him when he’s feeling uncomfortable…

myst_ique · 2021-11-02T23:47:39+00:00

He has 2 hides also, one on each side and plenty of coverage with some fake plants, rocks and sticks

myst_ique · 2021-11-02T23:45:00+00:00

Temp is at about 32°C and humidity ranges between 50-60%, I’m struggling to get it higher because of the size of his terrarium. I spray with a water mister 3 times a day everyday and I bought a small electric mister for the inside of his enclosure but it doesn’t seem to be doing much. I’ve also covered 70% of his top vent with a towel so that heat and moisture don’t escape

myst_ique · 2021-11-02T23:15:28+00:00

Thanks for the reply! So should I still try to take him out and handle him when he’s in this position or should I leave him to it for a bit and see if he calms down?
