I'm so happy that my video helped you! Thank you for suggesting it :) Good luck with your placements! It is such a great opportunity!

Thank you so much Faye! I totally agree that it feels better to hear you're not alone in your feelings and experiences!

Amazing impossible list! I love that it encourages us to dream big and work hard :)

I'm not entirely sure, I think if you're not wanting to do NETP then you just apply for jobs independently, but with all the changes happening with NETP next year I'm not sure if this has changed - my best advice would be to email the ACE coordinators and ask, they are pretty good at replying quickly! The email is: nursing@acenz.net.nz

Thank you so much lovely! I am so so glad that you're finding my videos helpful! It really means so much to me :)

Thanks for watching, lovely, and thank you so much for pointing that out! I hadn't even thought of that :)

I'm definitely a list girlie haha! Thanks for watching, Faye! xx

Ahh thank you so much! It's my first time colouring it a bolder colour :) Loving your impossible list, you've totally got this!

Hi lovely! Thank you for supporting my channel! I share them and go through it step by step in my netp videos on how to write a cover letter and cv! Hope this helps :)

Hi lovely, as new grad pay varies depending on where you work, I would definitely recommend checking out the careers.govt.nz website for clearer information! Once you've been working at a place for a full year, you are entitled to 4 weeks annual leave. Hope this helps!

Our OSCE definitely was because of covid haha, still a lot to remember and learn all the skills fresh :)

Thanks for supporting my channel Hamza!

Thank you Hamza!

Thanks for watching!

Thank you so so much Faye! you're quite right, the time definitely has flown, and I feel like I've learnt so much :) Thank you for your support and kind words, they really mean so much to me! Huge congrats on your first class masters!

Hi lovely, thank you for watching my video - which test are you asking about? ✨

@@charlottemiriam m asking about literacy and numeracy test for entering in diploma in nursing level 4

Thank you so much for your kind words lovely! ☺️

Thank you so so much lovely for this kind comment! It really means so much to me and I’m so happy that you’ve found my videos helpful! Thank you! ☺️✨

It really is! I’m so grateful to have this as my garden ☺️

Hi lovely! Thank you for watching my video, I completely understand what you mean because this was me with pharmacology! You do use anatomy and physiology quite a lot, but I would also say that once you're working or doing your placements, I find that you'll remember things easier and for longer because you have the practical experience to support your knowledge. Another thing to remember is that when you're on placements or in your first nursing job, your colleagues will be really aware and understanding that you're new and still learning, and won't judge if you have to ask questions or for help. So try not to stress! You're doing a wonderful job and will be an amazing nurse xx

You’ve always been so lovely and supportive of me Faye and I really really appreciate it! I’ll be catching up on your vlogs this weekend, can’t wait! 💖☺️✨

Thank you so much for supporting my channel lovely! Faye is just amazing and I love watching her vlogs, they just inspire me so much :) Congrats on starting your nursing journey! You've totally got this xx

Thanks for watching! Good luck for your next placement!

Hi lovely, thanks for watching - I think this question would best be put forward to a dietician or your GP as it is actually quite complex. Everyone is different and so needs different things to nourish them, you would have to take into account what non-veg or veg foods you were eating, how much, when etc to properly answer this question, which I am unable to do. Sorry that I can't help more!

Thank you very much!

I’m so grateful for all your support Faye! ☺️💖

Thank you Hamza! ☺️

Thank you so much Faye! And huge HUGE congrats on finishing nursing school! You must be feeling so joyful 🥳🥳🥳

@@charlottemiriam thank you it honestly still hasn't sank in 🤣❤

I did! I got my job at a general practice clinic :)

@@charlottemiriam great 👍

It is frustrating that the netp program is being paused in hospitals - hopefully they will re-evaluate!

Hi there lovely! Yes :) You address all netp coordinators listed for the region of health NZ you are applying for (eg: for Health New Zealand - Te Toka Tumai Auckland, there are 5 coordinators listed, so you address all 5 of them). Hope this helps!

Thank you Hamza!

Thank you so much for supporting my channel lovely, it means so much to me! And big congrats on being almost there - you've got this and I'm proud of you!

I love this so much! And that's so reassuring to hear because it does get difficult when I start comparing myself to my colleagues and how much knowledge they have :) I am loving practice nursing and feel so grateful for getting this as my job, so the task box is worth it hehe

@@charlottemiriam you will do well!!! (ps I still compare myself and I'm nurse lead 🙈😂)

Hi lovely, not entirely! In hospitals I think from next year they will be pausing the new entry to practice programmes, which is the new graduate program you do for assessments and extra support in your first year of nursing. So new graduates will still be able to apply for jobs and get hired, but it won't be for entry into the NETP program, which kind of sucks :(

Hi lovely! Thank you so much for supporting my channel :) I totally understand where you're coming from as I also worry deeply about getting things right and passing. My best advice is that sometimes you just have to do it and push through! I went through a hard time in my second year where I had lots of self-doubt and I fell behind, I really wanted to drop out, but pushing through led me to an amazing third year and now my career! I also think talking to others really helps because they can give advice or new perspectives, and working with others - I had a group chat with a couple of nursing school friends where we helped each other through. My last thing that has helped me since high school is making study schedules, because I feel like it calms me down as I feel more in control of the situation. When I do that, I know exactly what I have to get done and when, and it makes me feel more prepared. If you're worried about falling behind, you could start off with a small study schedule prior to starting just to brush up on some basic anatomy and health, so you walk into nursing school feeling a bit more confident. I loved Lecturio (which has a free platform) - they do bite sized videos which explain health topics really well so maybe start with something like that? Sorry I know that's all such bleurgh advice but that was what genuinely helped me through :) Nursing school is a roller coaster ride but I am so grateful that I did it, so I hope you're able to go and start your nursing journey! You're so capable and I know you can do it xxx

@@charlottemiriam Thank you so much! I am looking into different avenues I can take to become an RN in the States. You only need to have 2 years of school to be eligible to take the NCLEX boards and I already have a lot of prerequisites done for my bachelor's degree in psychology. I am applying to be a nurse's aide so hopefully, that will give me more experience. I really appreciate your encouragement. Best of luck on finishing your diabetes seminar it seems really interesting.

Thank you so much lovely! I really appreciate your support :)

Hey lovely! Thank you so much for supporting my channel! I really appreciate it :) I always tell people not to worry if they haven't done any science in school - at uni, they will tech each paper from scratch, under the assumption that it is entirely new information to everyone. There is also a mix of students, like some people will be returning to uni after a career change and may not have come straight from school, so the lecturers kind of have to teach everything from scratch anyway! I think the most important thing is that during the semester you put a little bit of time aside to study for your papers, and then you will be totally fine :) You've got this!

Thanks for watching and supporting my channel lovely! Thank you for your brilliant suggestion - I'll definitely add this to my filming schedule :)

Thank you so so much for watching my video and supporting my channel! I can't tell you how much I appreciate it :)

@@charlottemiriam Hi, Charlotte. Btw What app are you using for flashcards? I forgot the name.. I've already downloaded a few apps that you recommended. I also like the "I am"👍 Thanks Have a good day🌸

It's called Anki! :)

Hi lovely! Thank you so much for supporting my channel and a huge congrats on starting your nursing journey! I chose AUT because I got the impression that it was less competitive and slightly more hands on than other universities, which suited my character and way of learning. My second choice was University of Auckland because of the quality of teaching you get there. Hope this helps!

Thanks for watching, Hamza!

I'll add it to my filming schedule lovely! Thanks for watching :)
