Three students share their thoughts on what it means to them to be recognised for their respective awards.聽
Georgios Romanakis, MSc Mental Health Nursing student said: 鈥淩eceiving the Sarah Cheeseman Compassionate Care Award means a lot to me, as being recognised for compassionate care in a field devoted to helping others is a great honour. Sarah鈥檚 husband told me during the ceremony that 鈥渃ompassion and empathy cannot be taught and that is the reason why this award is different鈥�. This award and feedback I have received from service users, will always remind me of the importance of compassionate care and that recognition of your hard work can motivate you to keep going, especially during the challenges the NHS is currently facing. The MSc Mental Health Nursing course has given me the opportunity to grow academically, and I will always use this knowledge to make a difference in service users鈥� lives.鈥澛�
Kelly Bateman, BSc (Hons) Paramedic Science student said: 鈥淚 feel very honoured to have received the South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust Prize. I wasn't expecting to win any awards for my time at 新加坡多多开奖记录, so I feel very proud to have been recognised. I have really enjoyed my placements with South Western Ambulance Service and I have had an amazing experience with fantastic mentors. I couldn't have asked for a better 3 years, all things considered with the pandemic!聽 聽聽
Coming from a full-time Combat Medic role within the British Army to study Paramedic Science at BU was a big step and change for me, but I have had a great experience and feel the foundation I'd built in the Army and continued developing at BU has led me to a great place to start my career as a Newly Qualified Paramedic. I send my thanks to all the staff at BU who have helped me over the last 3 years and I would recommend the course at 新加坡多多开奖记录 to anyone wanting to pursue a career as a Paramedic.鈥澛犅�
Dale Gregory, BSc (Hons) Adult Nursing student said: My time at BU was a positive experience and even when my cohort was challenged by the demand and stresses of covid, A9 was always supportive and the academic staff where outstanding helping us all develop, grow, and succeed as academic students and future nurses.聽I was lucky to be nominated for The University Hospitals Dorset Outstanding Student Nurse Award, I never imagined I was even a thought in any awards let alone being lucky enough to receive this award.鈥澛� 聽聽
The awards were opened by BU Vice-Chancellor Professor John Vinney and the Faculty of Health & Social Sciences鈥� Deputy Dean of Education and Professional Practice, Dr Sara White, and were closed by the Dean of the Faculty of Health & Social Sciences, Professor Anand Pandyan.
Dr Sara White said: 鈥淭his awards ceremony is a fantastic occasion to celebrate the achievements of some of our students and recognise their hard work and dedication to their studies and future careers.
鈥淚 was heartened to hear stories of students who have continued to achieve despite adversity, as well as those who have excelled in their placement or academic work.
