Don't listen to all you see and hear on the news. The NHS workforce is a FORCE, filled with amazing people who go above and beyond every day for the health and well-being of our patients.
I enjoy this role as I have the opportunity to communicate with patients on a daily basis and improve their quality of life. I am also fortunate to have a fully funded MSc in Neurosensory Science as part of the role, which allows me to develop my research skills and support my clinical skills.
Can be very rewarding working within the NHS, but also stressful at times and always need to work together to help patients and protect the NHS in the future.
The NHS can be a fantastic environment to pursue a career.听 I had a fantastic career and was proud to have worked in the health service, and would love more people in my field of work to consider it.
