I See A Big Change In Myself

“I expressed an interest in the nursing apprenticeship, was interviewed a few days later and the following week I was at university starting my apprenticeship studies. I’d already trained as a nurse associate. It gave me more responsibilities and more autonomy – and there was a pay rise!

For that course I studied and worked, this one I studied full time. I couldn’t have afforded to do it without Mersey Care’s support. The academic side was daunting, but I had a mountain of support. It’s given me confidence –I can see a big change in myself.

Helen Bailey trainee nurse, 52.

Careers

A New Direction

“I used to feel stuck but now I can see new career paths. Becoming an older apprentice has allowed me to develop and grow both personally and professionally.”

John Sloan, Modern Apprentice and Social Work Undergraduate.

Nisha Jose, experienced nurse, now Telehealth Clinical Team Leader.

We Look After Each Other

“I don’t have a single example of being disrespected for being transgender. The LGBTQ+ network has been there for me, and I’ve been able to support other trans people with advice and gender services.

I don’t know all the answers, but I find out –we should all look after each other.”

Nikki Baxter, Senior Nurse Practitioner at Halton Later Life and Memory Service.

Sheldon Rodrigues, Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner.

James Savage, Mental Health Nurse.
