Well I think I've done quite a bit of growing up in the last few years (still young at heart). Feel that I'm at a better age to undertake further education, althou the only down side is that i had to take a slight pay drop to take current post, but its what I wanna do.

Good luck with it an advice you require feel free to either reply here or contact me via pm

hi nick, yeah, i have considered it. my hydro/physio is limited at present as we have a qualified physio that comes in part time to oversee the rehab, so there is no view to send a nurse onto anything like the rehabilitation therapist course (esp as its so expensive!)

how did you find a change of career at your age? (my age range too, so not being rude!)

I'm currently having a career break from veterinary nursing, working in the radiography department at my local hospital. Enjoy it so far, will be going to uni in jan to study for a foundation degree and then hope to go on to study for the full radiography degree.

I see you interested in Physiotherapy, you thought about looking into this area either animal related or human related???

Either studying for the degree full time, part time or working as an assistant???
