 This is a bit of a moan, but here goes... 
 I&amp;#39;m a VN (not registered) who has returned to nursing after a long break. I was so excited when a local practice offered to take me on in a nursing role part-time. I have been there now for nearly 6 months</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 10</generator><item><title>Re: Time to Quit nursing?</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/133617?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sun, 05 Aug 2012 21:08:01 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:8401b0f3-0942-4fff-a62f-4f33c254f879</guid><dc:creator>Selena  Carnell</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;ve just returned to nursing after a 7 year break, luckily I re registered before my 5 yrs were out and had to retrain. Done 3 days so far and loving it, the vets have had me blood testing, tubing, knocking out. It&amp;#39;s only a small 2 vet practice but enjoying it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Time to Quit nursing?</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/133523?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 01 Aug 2012 10:17:46 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:4f898cb8-8ef2-4c63-abc8-b56e8eee6079</guid><dc:creator>Mark Hedberg</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;[quote user=&amp;quot;Hippie Chick&amp;quot;]&lt;p&gt;Hi Mark,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks for your reply and&amp;nbsp;your advice.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I agree, I am definately in need of some up to date training.&amp;nbsp; Some CPD has been mentioned by the PM but not forthcoming yet.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Think I will have a look around myself and see what is available.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Stating anything &amp;nbsp;new or returning to an ever changing&amp;nbsp;veterinary &amp;nbsp;environment can be challenging on ones confidence.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Happy to discuss further off line if you wish to get in touch&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;All the best&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kindest Regards&lt;/p&gt;

Don&amp;#39;t fight this on your own. Also, definitely definitely sign up for some CPD - times do change and after a few years out of the saddle things do move on a bit. Pick your top two problem areas and find a good day course to do some intense brushup. Your profile says you&amp;#39;re in the Midlands, I believe - you&amp;#39;re a bit far out of my neck of the woods but you&amp;#39;ll be spoiled for choice, quite a few CPD companies out there in the central midlands to choose from.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Also webinars, there are some really great lectures out there. A bit of up to date knowledge will do wonders for your confidence! This might actually solve both of your problems!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Cheers,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Mark&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
