    Tips for those interested to become a DN.
    1- be aware that patient house is their house, you can’t open curtains or turn the light on without their permission, in case you can’t see your notes, help yourself.
    2- smoke and holders be aware that you may need to work around of trash because some houses is not cleaned 🧹 at all.
    3- you work by yourself without a colleague to you to ask questions.
    4- you will need to drive a LOT, and your car will be undervalued because of the mileage.
    5- your car is not your car anyone, it will be with a lot of mess that you need to work.
    6- be aware you will turn to patient house and they will probably be on the floor, or even deceased. You will have to sort out by yourself.
    7- paper work is never end, you will always have something to do out of work hours.
    Overall is an okay ish job. Good luck for those interested, you will need.

When I applied to them, I wrote that I can drive very well and all that, but later someone told me that cars in the UK are mostly manual. When we had an informal interview, they made mention of providing us with their available car until we are able to get personal one. Now my fear is, if it is manual that I am asked to move and I couldn't do that, it will look as if I am not honest 😢😢😭.

      You can keep it with you for about 2 hours in a special container provided. We all have one of that container and take it to any any GP surgery around you but be aware of their picking times as each GP surgery has a time that samples are being picked up by a courier to the hospital.

    Evening dear, I have just qualified as a nurse and I was just looking for inspiration in regards to working in the community, as I always thought I wanted to work on the wards; although my mind has recently changed. Please can you enlighten me when you say community offers more flexibility and also any other advice,pros and cons etc Thank you x

    • @AkuaAgyemang
      @AkuaAgyemang  3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Thanks for watching ❤️❤️. If you’re a parent, you can do flexible hours so you can drop and also pick your kids up from school. This you need to discuss with them at the interview. Because you’re given your list for the day, you plan your day according to the needs of the patients on your list so you’re in control of how you want your day to go. I like the fact that I am stuck on a ward the whole day with little breaks in between. You can have breaks in between patients as I said depending on how you plan your day. One con will be the fact that you need to be driving first. The community also only pays for your mileage and not necessarily the servicing of your car so every cost of repairing your car will be on you and because you’re constantly driving the car, you might have to be fixing some things once in a while depending on the state of your car

      Hi, it actually depends on your team and their caseload. Where I am at the moment, it can range from 7 to 12 a day. It might be different from other places.

    Hi sis, is a community nurse same as a public health nurse or health visitor?

    • @AkuaAgyemang
      @AkuaAgyemang  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello hun, no they’re not the same. Health visitors are specifically trained for children. They take over from the midwives after a baby is born till they become adult. Community nurses are just regular nurses who deliver care in people’s own home instead of a care setting or hospitals. Public health nurses are normally specialised nurses in the area of sexual health or health protection. They do not necessarily visit people at home to deliver nursing care. They’re more into educating the public through awarenesses. Both nurses and midwives can train to become health visitors and public health nurses but only nurses can become community/district nurses.

    How much do a community nurse earn

    • @AkuaAgyemang
      @AkuaAgyemang  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Oh hi there, I’m glad you found my video useful ❤️❤️. Community earning is just like the wards, just different between different trusts and where you’re based. Nurses in London earn a bit more than those outside London. Again, it depend how many hours you do, whether part time or full time. I hope this helps. Let me know if if need more clarification. Thanks

    My Ghanaian sis this is just a concerned question but are you allowed to make videos on the job? Does NMC/NHS/UK protocols permit this? With patient confidentiality, professionalism and all that? (Because 1. You’re in uniform and making social media videos.....others have been disciplined for a lot less
    2. You’re driving to and showing patient addresses which can be seen and used ulteriorly by anybody etc)
    Are you sure you won’t get into trouble if the nursing board sees this? Remember it’s the internet and anybody can come across this
    Just a humble opinion from another Ghanaian sis.

    • @AkuaAgyemang
      @AkuaAgyemang  3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      If you watched the video I did not show any thing about any patient. Nothing at all. And I wasn’t talking whiles driving, I only did when I was packed. No address was shown and no detail was revealed either. I just filmed my driving and did a voice over while editing. And with uniform, there’s no problem with that.

    • @AkuaAgyemang
