Hi future UK nurses, I just took OSCE and it is year one of nursing school all over again. It is simple tasks but when the examiner is staring at you with a clipboard it just rattles your nerves! I said my mistakes and hopefully I get positive points...

Hi there After my second attempt I have passed CBT exam!! Now OSCE is next. I used mnemonics to remember the code and memorized all the formulas for drug calcs, a lot of safe guarding and what NOT to choose. I am glad I am done with this part. Good ...

Im sorry baglady, you feel that way. Like I said you go into a contract blind, you get your phone interview and all your perfect numbers and then when you get there you get no orientation or barely an orientation, the worst patients, all the admissi...

Hi Breezi , Thanks for replying. I dont think that they will go after me. It makes no sense, have a contract and not have work but yet I am still on contract. At least you had a schedule and simply called off sick. I hate to put a blackmark on my res...
