Clinical Practice Educator SMH MIC 📚
Joined January 2022
I have always been proud of telling our cohort’s story to the IENs on how we survived during the pandemic. We arrived a week before the national lockdown was announced. The pandemic taught me resilience, discipline including high value for life and wellbeing. I had a bittersweet first year in the UK. However, my experiences during the pandemic honed by clinical knowledge and skills. It gave me confidence to try other roles which aligns with what I am passionate in doing - teaching. 4 years later, I am still teaching and I would not have reached to this point without those encounters, the people who have incessantly supported my insane ideas and the respect that I have developed over the years towards this role. And I have always associated success with boldness. Because if others can do it, why can’t you? Happy 4th Anniversary to me and to Cohort 14 ❤️

Kick off the year’s TEA trolley teaching sessions with Insulin Safety and Diabetes Care Management! As we transition from the holiday indulgences filled with sweets and treats, it’s the perfect time to refocus on managing diabetes effectively and ensuring safe insulin administration in the ward. Let’s start the year with the right dose of knowledge and teamwork for better patient care✨🫶🏼 #Expert #PatientSafety @ChefNurseVon

Meeting our IEN new starters before Christmas, alongside our lovely DDDN, @fazghooloo11 was the perfect cherry on top! We enjoyed a warm tea and coffee morning together, celebrating their success in passing their OSCE on the first try. They’re now looking forward to exploring London and their Christmas walk! We’re excited to support them in their journey. Warmest welcome to all! 🎄 ✨

It was a whirlwind hour with 10 staff vaccinated! Shared different stories along the way, and one even said I have "magic hands." Happy to lend a hand again at today’s Jabathon! 💉🫶🏼
