Had a few ups and downs, the usual rollercoaster of living this sugary existance but the major change in my life has been packing in the day job and going back to uni to study Nursing. I am enrolled on a Graduate Diploma in Nursing at BCU doing the adult branch of nursing.
I go on my first placement on monday the 9th at a local hospital, excited and nervous!
The uniform is quite smart and not too "clunky" if that makes sense which makes the whole thing easier. The only downside being the yellow eppaulettes I have to wear, the girls get yellow piping.
I've been signed off on basic life support, manual handling and (haha) injection technique.
Roll on monday!
Also as promised in an earlier entry I have my thoughts on the Sanofi Avensis Solostar pen, its a huge improvement over the Autopen 24 I was using before, the action is nicer with more control over how quickly a dose is administered, I can dose in 1 unit increments and can dial back if I make a mistake with dialing it up.
Also it looks much cooler. This is an important consideration! Purple and grey is much nicer than the sickly blue I had before.
Hahaha we have another inside man . . .
