Student

Abigail Best

Nursing Studies (Registered Nurse Mental Health Nursing) BSc (Hons)

Supporting a patient on placement to rebuild their life and change a pattern of acute hospital stays has given me so much hope and reaffirmed my belief that recovery is at the heart of what we do.

Graduate

Barry Costello

Paramedic Science BSc (Hons)

I’m now working as a newly qualified paramedic and can finally enjoy getting those paramedics slides on my shoulders that I’ve worked so long and hard for, to provide person-centred care to my patients.

Graduate

Maddy Taggart

Midwifery (Registered Midwife) BSc (Hons)

My time at Surrey fully prepared me for life as a qualified practitioner and I’ve now moved back home to the Isle of Man, where I’m working as a midwife at a local hospital.

Student

Yasmin Warner-Young

Paramedic Science BSc (Hons)

On my placements, I’ve been practising my attending skills, collating accurate histories for patients’ presenting complaints, then carrying out appropriate assessments.

Graduate

Sarah Noble

Nursing Studies (Registered Nurse Children's Nursing) BSc (Hons)

I’ve recently started at Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children, working on a neurology ward. Although there have been very tough days, I’m looking forward to embracing all the challenges ahead.

Graduate

Victoria Brown

Nursing Studies (Registered Nurse Adult Nursing) BSc (Hons)

I’m a Band 5 Staff Nurse, working on an acute cardiac unit. I love working with the patients and I’m always learning something new.

Student

Jen Rogers

Midwifery (Registered Midwife) BSc (Hons)

On my clinical placements, I support women in labour, take part in antenatal clinics and postnatal visits, and help provide specialist care in the baby unit.

Graduate

Tia Dolphin

Nursing Studies (Registered Nurse Children's Nursing) BSc (Hons)

I’m now a Paediatric Staff Nurse at my local NHS trust and I love my job! Every day is different – you never know what to expect – and I’m always learning to tackle new challenges.

Student

Wendy Barrie

Nursing Studies (Registered Nurse Adult Nursing) BSc (Hons)

Through my placements, I’ve learnt that it’s the little things that matter the most. Competence, professionalism and technical skills are essential, but it’s kindness, a smile, a welcome cup of tea, and a genuine warmth, that patients appreciate and remember.
