  1. Traitor. If I ever operate on you Im going to accidentally remove all your limbs and replace them with beanstalks so people stare and say, "eeeew, look at that weird girl with beanstalks instead of limbs!"

    ..unless you come to Nottingham, of course.

    Hi Runnerbean,

    I'm really pleased for you...

    I was wondering if you would explain what your six-months' mentoring involved. Did you get a doctor to mentor you?

    I'm looking to strengthen my work/voluntary experience in as many ways as I can. I'm particularly intrigued by the idea of mentoring. At present I've been trying to get a healthcare assistant job as my own work (self-employed carpenter) is getting quiet, but it's not easy. I contacted my local hospital and told them upfront my goals and they said, we only want volunteers who can go on for several years (despite their website saying a minimum of nine-months which if they had took me on earlier when I first contacted them I could have met but not now). They also said their work-experience scheme that they do for “sixth-formers” is full.

    I've got many years of healthcare experience and interaction with healthcare professionals, through my family's circumstances which I plan to reflect upon although I've heard that non-personal or family experience is favoured. I'm not sure how true this is. Either way, I plan to augment this to be on the safe side.

    Anyway, I've thought that if I can't get a full-time six-month placement or job in healthcare maybe I could get away with organising lots of shadowing throughout the next seven months.

    I've got over a years experience first-aiding and by the time I apply it should be close to three so hopefully that will help.

    Would appreciate a bit of advice so I can form a contingency plan should I not get a care job, especially concerning mentoring.

    Regards
    Robert Adshead
