Nursing: University Study & Careers In Nursing – Graduates Tell Their Story With University Of East Anglia
11th February 2021 @ 13:00 - 13:45
In this webinar we connect with Katrina Emerson, Associate Professor in the School of Health Sciences at University of East Anglia who will introduce their Nursing courses.
We will then connect with Emily, a Nursing graduate from UEA who has since worked in a variety of nursing roles, including A&E and international work.
Emily is currently working as a health and wellbeing nurse for substance misuse and will talk to students about her experience in assessment, treatment and prevention of both illicit and prescribed drug misuse.
This is a great chance for Year 12 & 13 students (and equivalent) to hear about undergraduate Nursing study, Emily’s university experience, and how this has prepared her for her current role.
There will be lots of opportunities to ask questions and to find out about the decisions Emily has made since she was in Year 12 & 13 to successfully embark upon, and establish themselves in, her career.
An insight into what these roles and opportunities look like during COVID will also be provided.
Our events are designed so that a group of students can take part from a classroom or students and teachers can take part as individuals, either from school or from home. This means that sessions will continue irrespective of possible school closures.
As a live, participative event, this session will not be recorded but slides and other resources will be shared after the event, where available.
Suitable for: Year 12 & 13 students (and equivalent) studying, or with a possible interest in studying, Nursing and related disciplines.
Preparation/Pre-Reading: Students may wish to consider questions they have about studying and working in Nursing.
