Student stories

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.

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.

Since graduating, I’ve been working as a nutrition educator and doing nutrition consultancy. Soon, I’m planning on applying for a PhD, to contribute to the growth of nutritional science and teach. There’s still so much more to explore in nutrition and this truly excites me.

Having not been in a study environment for many years, it was a steep and exciting learning curve.

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.

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.

My time at Surrey cemented my passion for veterinary science and I’m now studying at the Royal Veterinary College in London, on their graduate veterinary medicine programme.

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.

The modules themselves were so interesting with a unique range of texts, which I may never have discovered on my own".
