Hi,

Well, the first - January 2022 news page this year went online only three days late!!

So here are with our sixty-first SoN News Page. And quite an issue too....

www.schoolsofnursing.co.uk/Newspages/SiteNews.htm

We have been able to add  some really nice additions to collectors corner, including both badges and a scarf(!) which may be from Seafield Hospital - I believe that Seafield Hospital Sick Children's Hospital is in Scotland, UK, but am attempting to verify this; some of donated badge (photographs) for which we are very grateful indeed, sincerely.

PLUS - a very special request for assistance from a male nurse who is looking for his Best Man, whom he lost touch  with whilst serving in the forces - 
'I am trying to trace my best man of 1973 by the name of John Elsegood'. May not be too difficult - Broadlands School of Nursing, Norwich, Norfolk. 1973.

Go on, make someone's day!!

It has been another difficult one news page... Our main computer refused to play ball and we had to transfer everything to our back-up.  Not a simple task.

But its a good read.
Enjoy

Hi.

And all the very best for 2022 Sue - I will need to gather my thoughts about 'memories' having been computing for most of the day!

I will get back with my ten 'penneth - but have just remembered that our first (log fire) will be going out so will need to fill the bucket...

Happy New Year...
so  on the 2/1/78 I left a snowy Birmingham heading down the A34, in a Triumph herald heading towards Oxford armed with a copy of the Nurses Aid Series of orthopaedic nursing, the required scissors, flat brown shoes, a fob watch and a lot of trepidation!! Yes 44 years ago I began my nursing career as a student nurse at Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre in Headington. I am still a practising nurse and will probably still be one on my 50th anniversary if the governments still keep on raising the retirement age ( that'll be this day in2028!!)
What changes I have seen - menisectomies on bed rest for 5 days complete with a Robert- Jones bandage and a wound drain attached to a glass vaccuumed zimmer bottle removed after 24 hours  Patients discharged once they could straight leg raise Now they're in and out as day surgery via arthroscopes.
Now ask me what my passwords and PIN numbers are I really can't remember or if appointment s are written down they tend to get forgotten - yes its an age thing but some memories remain crystal clear

Thank you, I?ve so many badges to post on the SoN site.
Regards
Mike
